I've searched the Gnome Help and Website ... the Help has a bad link apparently, when I goto the part about "switching between Window Managers" it just opens a blank page...

And no, can't find anything on search sorry...

Anyone know a guide or just don't mind telling me how to "close" Gnome so I can use Ice... like change it so when I boot up thats my default Window Manager, just like Gnome is now (Redhat 7.3 by the way...)

Trying to fix this because I get graphically lagged to hell on Gnome :/

Thanks in advance, sorry to post the dumb question but I'm not alone I'm sure :D

Switching from Gnome is NOT a gnome related issue... it's a Distro related issue and you'd found the answer in a very short time if you'd read the Red Hat 7.3 documentation (over at http://www.redhat.com) instead of the Gnome documentation.

In a nutshell, to do it under Red Hat: use "switchdesk" (http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-7.3-Manual/ref-guide/s1-x-clients.html)


And no, can't find anything on search sorry...

That's because you are looking at the wrong place for help (searching for a Toaster related question in a TV related forum will not reward you any usefull answer either)
