I recently had to switch to Metacity on unstable (yes, less flexibility, but I suppose that's what I like about Metacitiy, it's simplicity), and managed to do it by following these steps: apt-get install metacity update-alternatives --config x-window-manager For some reason, I had to reboot after that. Simply logging out and back in didn't do the trick, not even when I restarted XFree86 by using the well known combination (Ctrl+Atl+Backspace). However, once I rebooted, GNOME was running Metacity as the default window manager no problem. ---------------- Nitebirdz http://www.sacredchaos.com/ -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
