Download Windowmanager ((FREE))
Cameron Cortez
I am using the display manager that was set up by the installation program. This is lightdm, rather than the standard xdm. It should be settable in /etc/sysconfig/displaymanager, but is not set there in this install. The display manager should present the login screen (which lightdm does), and start the window manager I have specified - fvwm2. The window manager to start should be specified in /etc/sysconfig/windowmanager. Even though I did so, and tried the usdate-alternatives method, it did not work.
Hello,
this is really a minor issue, but nonetheless, I would be interested in a solution:
When I use XFCE4 with another windowmanager than xfwm4 (so kwin or compiz), keyboard shortcuts (assigned in xfce4-settings-manager) only work after at least one window is open. I also tried assigning keyboard shortcuts via kde-systemsettings or ccsm (Compiz-config-settings-manager), but it's the same for them: No window, no shortcuts.
As I said, the issue is minor as the workaround is: "open a window!" (so I do now with a terminal at session startup), but does anyone know a solution anyhow?
