Can anyone tell me how to set Sawfish as my window manager on gnome2 (on
RH 8.0).  When I installed (updated) to RH8.0, it apparently changed my
window manager and what it defaults to now does not have the features I
like...

Thanks,
Dick

Well I was fooled! the "Sawfish Window Manager" preferences are listed
in the settings menus.

How do I set the new gnome2 to run Sawfish?

Thanks!
