# ps -auxww | egrep -i '{sawf|gnome}'

I couldn't remember how to use egrep or `grep -e` so in two commands...

# ps -auxww | grep -i sawfish ; ps -auxww | grep -i gnome\-

Here's the pressing question!  I am currently running startx.  It isn't
clear if my wm is sawfish or metacity, but one thing is certain: I have no
gnome-panel!  Just a background and I can middle-click for a menu :(

Is there a way to run binaries from within an xterm?  The DISPLAY variable
becomes a problem, because I don't want the X/GUI app to run within the
terminal of course.  I thought `exec gaim` for example would be similar to
Start > Run... to run a binary within the x session, no?

Also, `top` shows me that gnome-panel IS running, so why don't I see it?

Hopelessly lost, thanks for any guidance!
