Re: Serious problem in KDE filemanager.



Does anyone remember the application that allows you to pick WM's
when you start X up?? I got it a few months ago and wanted to
install it now so I could play with KDE and WM. If anyone can get
me that URL where it resides or the app name I would be
appreciative....Thanks
