Neil: I have a very similar setup. I wanted the panel functionality without the whole GNOME beast. I haven't noticed the sluggishness you report, though. I start the panel in .xinitrc: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- #!/bin/sh # Esetroot /usr/X11R6/lib/X11/asclassic/backgrounds/marble.jpg # rclock & emacs -i -T "Local_Emacs" & Eterm -v --font 8x16 -O --foreground-color black -T "FIRST ETERM" -S gray --login-shell & panel & exec sawfish --load /home/jim/.sawfish/lisp/personal-menu.jl ---------------------------------------------------------------------- It works well for me. I'm running X 4.0.3 from testing, and version 0.99 of sawfish from testing. Version 1.0.55 of gnome-panel, also from testing, Jim
