Re: Linux Progress(?)
There is an option under Yast -> System -> System settings to set the 'default window manager' but I'm not sure if that would keep the KDE desktop on top of the new manager or just switch to a different environment... like Windowmaker.
Now there is a cool desktop. I really like the 'look and feel' and it's noticably quicker and smoother than KDE. The problem is, it doesn't have a 'taskbar' like KDE or ICEwm and I can't figure out how to manage the applets that are normally parked in the tray. Starting any app creates a 'box' on the desktop, but then what? Right-clicking doesn't bring up the menu like it does in KDE. How do you make Kinternet dialout if you can get the context menu? So I can't figure out how to activate them.
And it looks like the "beagle" desktop search utility is dependent on Firefox so I can't remove it until I find a different desktop search program. It's very useful to be able to do brute force searches for things in those zillions of directories that *ix systems use.
