Hi,

Just tried Metacity. Looks slightly faster than Sawfish. I especially 
liked the simple window decorations. Although, when you resize the 
windows you can see a lot of window trails. Also, When I killed sawfish 
and started metacity on the command-line, it said
Window manager warning: 0 stored in GConf key 
/apps/metacity/general/num_workspaces is not a reasonable number of 
workspaces, current maximum is 32

And, When I tried looking in the GConf editor, I did not find the 
mentioned key/path/entry at all !!! No configuration entries in GConf 
editor for Metacity at all !!

Also, Do you know if we there is something like disk defragmentation for 
Linux or not. And, If so, Do I have to run it often. I remember doing 
that in Windows OS speeds up it up a bit by rearranging stuff.


Thanks in advance,
Sandeep
