My previous install was a pure E 16.6 desktop, my new install is Gnome
2.4.  Metacity sucks, and I want E as my WM.  I have tried the "killall
metacity; enlightenment" then logout and save settings, but its doesn't
seem like the best way to accomplish this.  In the E man page it suggest
running E and using it for session managment and then using the remember
feature to keep gnome panel and other running in each session.

What is everyone elses opinion?

If you use gdm as display manager you can do this to make an "E-GNOME"
entry in the gdm session list:

Create /usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.e-gnome containing:
#!/bin/sh
export WINDOW_MANAGER=enlightenment
exec gnome-session

Create /usr/share/xsessions/e-gnome.desktop containing:
[Desktop Entry]
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=E-GNOME
Comment=This session starts GNOME using enlightenment as window manager
Exec=/usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.e-gnome
TryExec=/usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.e-gnome
Icon=
Type=Application

/usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.e-gnome must probably be executable.
