[SOLVED] Configuring Enlightenment as the default window manager

ReaperX7 · 08-23-2013, 03:57 PM

Yes, basically you create a symlink for the Windows Manager in directory /etc/X11/xinit

Example:

Code:

cd /etc/X11/xinit
ln -s xinitrc.enlightenment xinitrc

And then run

Code:

startx

scroll down a bit to this bit:

I reverted to svn rev 66121 on Debian, rebuilt using easy_e17.sh -i -s so as not to update sources. E starts perfectly...

Maybe try building the svn version mentioned?
