Hello All,

Question for those Gnome users out there... First off how hard is it to
configure Gnone to use WindowMaker? Secondly, is there anyone out there
using Sawfish 0.35, who upgraded from a previous version or installed
after installing Gnome..

I installed 4.2-RELEASE without a set window manager, then I update my
ports tree and then installed Sawfish 0.35 with GNOME support. After all
was said an done, I started my xsession and got the following error:

---
Desk Guide
Gnome Desktop Pager

You are not running a Gnome complaint window manager. Gnome support by the
window manager is stronger recommened for proper desk guide operation.
---

Does anyone know what this error means, as according to Gnome.org, Sawfish
is not only supported but they have made it their Window Manager of
choice.

Finally, last question. With either Sawfish or Enlightenment installed
when I got the Themes configuration in the Configuration menu and then
leave to go onto another option I am plague with an application error in
the themes-applet (can't remember the exact name at this time, sorry)

That's all for now... I would like to thank anyone who answers in advance
for their assistance.

Paul Andrews
