Download it. Read the documentation. Read the install documentation. Install it. Enjoy it.



I haven't tried Enlightenment yet, but I hear it's great.

Good Luck,
Ted.

gconf-editor is the solution :-)

Access gconf-editor
Foot Menu->System->Config Editor... for the gconf-editor goes in desktop --> looks to the key .

default_wm /usr/bin/metacity
and modifies for the command that initiates enlightenment.

Later I see with more certainty, now I am working and I do not have Linux here.

I noticed that you have Conectiva, very good I also I use the Conectiva-Snapshot-9X : -)

it forgives me for my poor english :-( .

Hi i'm now in Gnome anda the correct is...

Access gconf-editor command
gconf-editor & or access the gnome main menu.
Foot Menu->System->Config Editor... for the gconf-editor goes in desktop -->gnome-->applicattions-->window_manager
looks to the key .

default /usr/bin/metacity

and modifies for the command that initiates enlightenment.
