These problems existed using the wmaker package from hamm as well as the wmaker package from /frozen. (wmaker_0.20.3-1.deb)
I am having trouble with my x sessions using windowmaker. I have windowmaker set as the default window-manager. When I run startx windowmaker starts up with no "dock", only an xterm and an icon with the windowmaker logo. If I exit my session and remove the ~/GNUstep directory windowmaker runs correctly (I think). The dock and clip are there, and I can add apps to the dock, use the WPrefs app, use the clip, etc. But, as soon as I close x (even if I "save session") the next time I startx the dock is gone again, and there is just the wm logo in the corner of the screen. If I remove the ~/GNUstep dir again the problem goes away, but only lasts for that session. I am new to Debian - I have recently moved to Debian from SuSE. Thank you for your help. -Ben
