I've added instructions about alternative window managers to
http://wiki.debian.org/Xmonad .

Switching the WM with update-alternatives struck me as better
for a novice reading http://wiki.debian.org/Xmonad .
> $ ps -e | grep openbox
> $ kill $OPENBOXPID
> $ nohup xmonad </dev/null >~/.xsession-errors 2>&1 &
That gave an xmonad process and killed the terminal window;
but no response to <Alt>+<Shift>+<Enter>.
> $ disown
With the terminal gone I didn't pursue that.
I'm interested in criticism of http://wiki.debian.org/Xmonad
and won't complain if someone improves my addition.
Regards, ... Peter E.
