Actually I disagree, it _is_ a Gnome vs. KDE thing, Sawfish is the window
manager for both Operating Environments (KDE and Gnome) yet behaves
differently in each.
I tried to change the appearance of windows in the Gnome control panel but
that control panel shows no place to change the window title bar. I have
switched to KDE for the time being since Gnome has now totally flaked out.
As a Red Hat user, I have found Debian to be a little odd frankly. Why is
Woody using so much ancient software?
