Gnome uses whatever you tell it to use as the window manager. I use
sawfish. It seems that sawfish was the preferred wm, at least during
the gnome 1.2 and 1.4 eras. Previously elightenment was generally
preferred.

If you're using pre-gtk2 sawfish, then look in the gnome control panel
under sawfish and find "Matched Windows".
For not-automatic placement, just drag the window around like you
normally would (on a MS or MacOS system). If the window has no
border, then you're not running any window manager. Run the control
center and choose a window manager to run. Without a window manager
you can't move windows.
