If you are looking for a nice tiling window manager I'd suggest trying either XMonad (if you know/want to learn Haskell) or Awsome WM (if you don't). They have similar keybindings (loosely based on vim) and have packages in may distros. I've been an XMonad user for about a year and a half and now I find it annoying to work in a normal WM. It feels like going from vim to notepad.

I would like to be using a tiling window manager, but I would want something that plays nicely with GNOME. I tried ratpoison, which is included in Fedora; it looks un-GNOMEy and has a significant learning curve, but I might experiment with it further. For the moment, I am using WinWrangler (https://launchpad.net/winwrangler), which has hotkeys to command Metacity to arrange windows in various ways; that may be sufficient for me. -- Matt
