What's your startup method? What is your desired outcome? If you're launching X off the command line: $ startx <windowmanager> & exit You can change the default windowmanager with: $ /usr/sbin/update-alternatives --config x-window-manager You should look under /etc/X11/<X display manager> for startup methods to see how you configure various available window managers / user environments on startup. -- Karsten M.
