You just have to edit ~/.xsession, change "exec foowm" to "exec barwm".

If you get Gnome 1.0 though, it will let you change window managers from
the Control Center. Gnome 1.0 should be released for slink very
soon, and is already on its way to potato. To use Gnome, put 
"exec gnome-session" in your ~/.xsession instead of a window manager.
(After installing the Gnome packages of course.)
