Thanks for the suggestion. I installed libwraster2, but I still can't switch to WindowMaker within GNOME.
When I try, the following shows up in my .xsession-errors file: in capplet_widget_state_changed changing state X connection to :0.0 broken (explicit kill or server shutdown). 1118581428000092986686000000056480008 Panel panel 0:812:1152:52 0 1 8 1118581428000093022443300000002840001 gtop gtop 363:13:707:788 0 0 4 got c 1118581428000093022443300000002840001 gtop gtop 363:13:707:788 0 0 4 got c 1118581428000092986686000000056480008 Panel panel 0:812:1152:52 0 1 8 WindowMaker-gnome fatal error: could not find user GNUstep directory (/home/kjohnson/GNUstep/Defaults/).

I'm going out of town for a week, and will try to figure this out on my own when I get back. But if anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate hearing them. - Kris Heinrich Rebehn wrote: > > Kristopher Johnson wrote: > > > > I've installed GNOME and the wmaker-gnome package (using apt and a > > mirror of ftp.gnome.org).
