To make it system wide, edit /etc/X11/window-managers. Your default will
be the first one in that list.

Hi,
I would make a .xinitrc file in your homedir and put:
exec your-prefered-window-manager
in it.
he chsh command will change your shell

become root and edit /etc/X11/window-managers. xinitrc goes through the
entries from top to bottom, using the first one avialable, so
edit /etc/X11/window-managers
after the commented lines (beginning with '#'), it lists, in order of
preference, windows managers to load -- you want yours to be the first on
that list.

You can change your /etc/X11/Xsession file to use olvwm.
Not sure about shell selection.
