Re: (deb potato) How to set default window manager for a) system b)indivdual users



Hi Martin

If you use gdm (gnome desktop manager), it will promt each user logging
in for the session he wants (and asks if he wants this session for
default in future). 
The sessions are defined in /etc/gdm/Sessions, and the system-wide
default session is a symlink /etc/gdm/Sessions/Defaults ->
/etc/gdm/Sessions/gnome or any other session. you can add sessions by
copying existing sessions and changing them to what you ant them to look
like. Hope that is what you wanted. I have no idea how to do this
without graphical-login manager...

That's nothing!  If you play it forward, it'll install Windows 2000.
