I am dying here. If you guys have not noticed, I am kind of a
newbie. Actually been in UNIX for years but have decided to switch to
Linux just because I really enjoy working with it. 

        Anyway, now I am trying to get any WM to work and I just am not
having any luck. Wanted to try E, but the ftp site is down...besides I
tried downloading from RedHat and rpm'ing it, but it had some dependents
I could not find anywhere.

        Ok, so I tried KDE...which I have had great success with...I
even have a TI laptop running KDE and it works great, but I can't seem
to get it to work on my workstation quite right.

        Tried WindowMaker....which I really wanted this one to work out,
but I could not get it to work either. At this point I pulled out a
razor and stuck it flush to my wrist. Dependencies suck. AND TRYING TO
FIND THE RIGHT LIBS IS IMPOSSIBLE! For anything...

        So, here I am. I have finally got something to
install....AfterStep -- rpm'ed fine. No dependents....but I cannot start
the thing. I cannot figure out how to start it. I am drowning here. Any
help with any of the systems would be appreciated and of course any web
addresses with help on getting wm's to run :) 

        Thanks, in advance you know.
