Gnome2 has it's own control center (/usr/bin/gnome-control-center ,
from gnome-control-center2).  It didn't work for me though (but at
least a window appeared!)

Makes sense to me.

I simply re-added sawfish to gnomecc's (1.4) list of window managers.


As for sawfish-ui crashing, I don't know.  sawfish is the only new app
that actually runs on my machine.
