I was subscribed to stumpwm list and get an instruction how to start stumpwm:
----------------->
Have you read /usr/share/doc/stumpwm/README.Debian [3]? It contains
information about how to start StumpWM.
-----------------<
----------------->
There's an open Debian bug about how to start StumpWM for CL newbies,
it's bug #356948 [4]. As you can read at [5], I'm working on a
solution for bug #356948 and a new Debian package is expected in the
next two weeks.

-----------------<
----------------->
If you want to start StumpWM from Emacs (which is not my advice),
fire-up SLIME and then give only the two last commands:
* (asdf:oos 'asdf:load-op 'stumpwm)
* (stumpwm:stumpwm)
My advice is to start the swank in ~/.stumpwmrc. Then once StumpWM
has started you can launch Emacs and connect to the running StumpWM
from SLIME with `slime-connect'.
-----------------<
Howewer, because I'm CL newbie, I can't to start stumpwm on Debian Etch.
