Except that it doesn't do compositing yet, I recommend XMonad for your WM (or any other tiling window manager). On such a small screen, it should solve alot of difficulties you have in placing windows in a reasonable space. There is no gui to configure it either, but you have the same barrier both ways. At least this way you're not using something as inelegant as devilspie. -Yaakov -- fedora-devel-list mailing list fedora-devel-list@xxxxxxxxxx https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-devel-list
