I am cc'n you since, due to the attacks it is taking a long time for email to get processed, my last email to the list took almost 4 hours.. normally I don't CC:, but in this case, you may get the info faster :) I use afterstep, what I do: echo "exec `which afterstep`" >~/.xinitrc afterstep 1.6(What I run in woody, this is the same ver in potato) has a list of window managers in the debian menu(mine only has KDE and afterstep but I think thats all I have installed). just be sure you have the menu package installed. nate -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
