Gnome on Gentoo
I've been using KDE exclusively on my Gentoo box, but I wanted to try Gnome, so I did an emrege for Gnome 2.6.2-rc1 and an etc-update and everything went well with no errors. However, when I try to run Gnome, I get the Gnome environment, but with the TWM window manager instead of Metacity. Does anyone know how to correct this problem? Thanks.

Just a guess, but metacity is a separate package. Did that get emerged too?
|
Yes I did. If I kill TWM I can start Metacity manually, but I don't know what file to edit to make Metacity the permanent choice.

Hmm, haven't used Gnome in quite some time. I suspect there's some kind of configuration file in ~/.gnome or a similar place, but I couldn't tell you what it might be called. Perhaps you can:
Code:
grep -iR twm ~/* |
Hmm.. have you tried the hard-core approach?
killall twm && metacity & Then when logging out, check the save session box. |
