I'm having a problem with Gnome. The default window manager is
enlightenment, which on my laptop, is quite slow to come up. I used
the Gnome Control Center to switch the default to Sawmill. This works
during the session where I make the change, but, even though I've
saved my session settings (multiple) times, when I restart X,
enlightenment comes up anyway. If I go into the control center, it
shows Sawmill as the window manager and the file
.gnome/wm-properties/Config reports "Current=Sawmill".
Nonetheless, Enlightenment won't go away.
Any suggestions? I've installed KDE on the system and I can
switch between KDE and Gnome without a problem now, but I find
myself crippled by a lack of knowledge of KDE, or a few missing
tools (like, where is the power monitor and what are the keyboard
shortcuts to switch between virtual windows?).
