Is gnome a desktop shipped with that windows manager?
GNOME is a DE (Desktop Environment). It "does more" than a plain old wm (window manager). Because it does more, it's thicker, uses more RAM (and CPU if you turn on all the fancy stuff that's really only suitable for not-yet-grownups). The standard GNOME window manager is Metacity (rhymes with capacity). KDE is the other popular Unix DE. > John Hasler wrote: >>> I do not have fvwm2 (not found when type fvwm2 --help as root) >>> >> >> Fvwm2 is now fvwm (has been for quite a while). >> >> >>> my default windows manager is gnome >>> >> >> Gnome is not a window manager. >> > - -- Ron Johnson, Jr. Jefferson LA USA Give a man a fish, and he eats for a day.
