OK I think I might have found a workaround. There is a bug here somewhere - make a copy of /etc/X11/dm/Sessions/dm/gnome.desktop and call it "wmaker.desktop" - Edit wmaker.desktop Name=Wmaker Exec=wmaker Then gdmgreeter passes wmaker to the legacy /usr/share/apps/switchdesk rather than /usr/share/switchdesk, as it is called in Core 2. I created a symbolic link back to /usr/share/switchdesk in the apps directory and it allowed me to use the newly created window manager. Seems a pain in the ass way to go about doing it, but it worked so hey. Anybody else feel this is a bug too? :) Chris :) --------------- Chris Eubank ***Any opinions contained in this e-mail message are solely that of the author and do not in any way, directly or indirectly, represent my employer, real or imagined. ***Caution, *nix powered air conditioner, do not open windows! -----Original Message----- From: fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx [mailto:fedora-list-bounces@xxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of Eubank, Chris RBCM:EX Sent: Thursday, July 08, 2004 12:05 PM To: For users of Fedora Core releases Subject: gdmgreeter and different window managers OK. Why can't I get different window managers into the Session list of gdmgreeter? Anybody else have this problem?
