You d'load/install the wm/de you want, then tell X to open with with it. Again, documentation is your friend. Something like: http://wiki.debian.org/xinitrc Note that you're going to get a ton of different responses to a question like, "Which wm/de should I use?" So, your best bet is to try some. It's (usually) easy and (usually) free. Again, do, at least, a google search for an answer before bothering the list with questions. > > -- > Jason Hsu <jhsu802...@jasonhsu.com> > > > -- > To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org > with a subject of "unsubscribe".
