Okay, this whole GNOME2 crap has _GOT_ to stop. I'm really starting to get
pissed off. I'll probably end up pinning my distro to testing if this goes on
much longer.

It's bad enough that the new sawfish binaries don't read my old configuration
info for viewport/workspace information. But they don't even provide me with
the stuff to configure my wm back to the way I had it before. The
sawfish-configurator no longer allows me to add/delete viewports to the
desktop. All I can do is add workspaces. I like to work with one workspace
and a 2x2 grid of viewports (like I have fvwm2 set up at work). But I can't
even do this now. All I can do is add desktops. It would be okay, except
sawfish workspaces don't understand the 2x2 geometry that I like to work with.
It seems like viewports were removed from Sawfish in GNOME2.
Just take a look at:

In general, take a look at the Release Notes *before* upgrading.
Nobody forced you to do so, so don't claim so loud that you made a mistake.
You have the freedom to upgrade or not, don't ask more.
Has anybody found this configuration stuff yet? I've looked in my ~/.sawfish
directory, but I can't find what needs to be fixed. Thanks.
Hope my links help...
I think I've come up with a new slogan for the new GNOME2 setup:
"GNOME2 -- Just like the old GNOME, only uglier and less configurable!"
KDE's starting to look better and better.
Maybe it's your way to go?
