xwmconfig

Hi, I upgrade systemtools (1z30 to 2z30 version), and now I cant do xwmconfig from runlevel 3.

Rollback to 1z30 works fine.

Saludos.

xwmconfig is deprecated and was removed.

To switch from one wm to another use GDM

about Xdialog/netpkg, any chance of making the first window a bit bigger, so that all five radio buttons are visible at one time, without the need to scroll?

otherwise i like it!

The only thing bothering me is that sometimes netpkg progress window get hidden behind the menu window, i can't say exactly how/what i did in netpkg, but when there was only one window, this did not happen of course ::)

startfluxbox doesn't work, only works with gdm session selected.

When I'm in XFCE I see the same behavior that you mention, the screens appear behind the main netpkg gui screen. When I'm in GNOME, this does not happen. Each screen that opens does not open behind the original netpkg screen.
