Are you using a display manager, like gdm or xdm? (that is, do you have a
graphical login?) Or do you start X from the console with startx? If the
latter, just edit .xsession in your home directory so it contains
wmaker
and whatever other programs you'd like to run at startup -- ie,
wmaker
nautilus &
If you're using GDM or something similar you'll need app-specific
instructions. So, let the list know where you're at :).
That said, there's not much point in having the Gnome panel installed if
you're not planning on using it :).
