Ah. You will have touse the Gnome Control Panel to change window managers.
Click on the main Gnome button on your Gnome panel and then choose Settings and
then Chose Gnome Control Center. When the window pops up, go to the Desktop
section and click on Window Manager. WindowMaker should be one of the options
there. Click on it and then click on "Try". If it starts up then clikc on Ok.
and then quit. Next time you restart Gnome via either restarting X or just
logging out and logging back in, you'll be using WindowMaker.
hope this helps
