Thanks for reminding me that metacity or compiz would show up in ps.  I 
use ps all the time just not for looking for that. :)

I had already read the stuff on the web on how to change managers in 
Ubuntu it just did not look like it had worked.

Now I have used ps and found that both my computers are running metacity. 
on one the windows-m sequence works on the other it does not.  Still not 
sure where to look for the difference that is causing that behavior.
