I had the same problem for moths, until I made sure that I had metacity for wm working with gnome, and not any other. Part of the problem is that in desktop preferences there is an entry for metacity setup, by default, not to a wm in general. Next thing you want to do is to delete old configuration files in your home directory, refering to gnome. You may even want to erase whole directories that have old configuration files. drwx------ 9 tony tony 4096 2004-06-11 21:00 .gnome drwx------ 12 tony tony 4096 2004-06-13 16:42 .gnome2 drwx------ 2 tony tony 4096 2003-10-22 17:17 .gnome2_private drwxr-xr-x 2 tony tony 4096 2003-10-20 16:53 .gnome-desktop drwx------ 3 tony tony 4096 2004-02-27 07:43 .gnome_private Try first .gnome2 alone, it mnay fix the problem.
