I've heard rumors that KDE only really works well with kwm, but this
could be rather old FUD. I know GNOME publishes a set of window
manager standards, and any window manager that meets these standards
will work fine. Pretty much every window manager these days does,
excepting really old things like twm. (fvwm might only have partial
support; windowmaker, enlightenment, sawfish, etc. all have the
necessary bits.)
