strange windowmaker behavior



These problems existed using the wmaker package from hamm as well as the
wmaker package from /frozen. (wmaker_0.20.3-1.deb)

I am having trouble with my x sessions using windowmaker. I have
windowmaker set as the default window-manager. When I run startx
windowmaker starts up with no "dock", only an xterm and an icon with the
windowmaker logo.

If I exit my session and remove the ~/GNUstep directory windowmaker runs
correctly (I think). The dock and clip are there, and I can add apps to
the dock, use the WPrefs app, use the clip, etc.

But, as soon as I close x (even if I "save session") the next time I
startx the dock is gone again, and there is just the wm logo in the
corner of the screen. If I remove the ~/GNUstep dir again the problem
goes away, but only lasts for that session.


I am new to Debian - I have recently moved to Debian from SuSE. 

Thank you for your help.

-Ben
