Re: Changing WM in Red Hat 9, Gnome 2.2

Yes, your right, this is the best approch.  I had a little glitch though.

"killall metacity && sawfish &"  It kill metacity alright and then 
restarted it, so:

I did:

killall metacity && sawfish
ctrl-z
bg

Then saved the session.  This worked in my accounts

Thanks All....
