Hi, Running woody with Helix Gnome packages.
I use gdm as my display manager, gnome-session as my session manager, and sawfish as my window manager. For the past week or two I've had this weird problem: if I log in as a "normal" (non-root) user, the window manager acts non-gnome compliant - the desktop gmc icons show up in the task list applet. Startup is painfully slow. Logging in as root "solves" this problem, but I don't view that as a real solution. It sure looks like a permissions problem, but I don't know where to start. I tried switching window managers (enlightenment) and had the same problem. I did use dpkg-reconfigure to reconfigure the xserver-common package as the "rootonly" line had snuck into my Xwrapper.config. Changing that to "console" didn't solve the problem. Does this sound familiar? I looked at the BTS for sawfish bugs (though I think I've decided this isn't a sawfish bug at all).
