How do I specify black box to be my default windows manager, it's a long
time since I have had to do this and that was on a RH6 based system.
I have searched through the /etc/X11 directory and not found any thing that
works.
Thanks
Rob

put the complete path to black box executable in your ~/.xinitrc and
startx will automatically run black box as your window manager.
Since it is not a parisc kernel devel issue, please send this knid of
question eslewhere :-) debian-user@lists.debian.org for example.
Thomas.

Or, to change it system-wide 'update-alternatives --config
x-window-manager'.
