Hi,
In the top left corner of the GDM screen you see a menu that allows you to choose a Debian session, a Gnome session, X session etc. Chose Debian session. Now login. It will ask if you want Debian session to be the norm. Say yes.
Now create a .xsession file with 2 words: exec wmaker
Logout, login and you'll be in Windowmaker.
As a tip, if you have a windows key, you can map it here to F13. Also, if there are partitions you want to mount or remote smbmounts that its a hassle to manually mount, .xsession is a good place to put the commands.
