Changing IceWM version!
 

Hi!
How do I change the IceWM version, i have downloaded the source compiled and installed it, but how do I choose it in the mandrake login.

I'm not answering this, but ask the same question.
Please help us.

if you installed it, it should overwrite the old files automatically.

If you want to know how to boot into it, as root, edit:

/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc

and remove the lines that execute the current window manager, it may be something like this:

startkde
gnome-session
exec fluxbox

and add a line at the bottom that reads:

exec icewm


You can also have different xinitrc files and specifiy at runtime, like:

startx /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.icewm


If you want to know how to add window manger entries to KDM, I dont know, I never use that stuff, its a waste of memory.

I agree with you,
but not the nice and beautifull secretaries in my office.

I know this is simple with Slackware.
Just put xinitrc.the_new_wm in the /etc/X11/xinitrc/,
then it will come out on xwmconfig's menu.

But I could not find it for kdm.
