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.
