I use enlightenment. I tried 'gnome', but can't change a few of the
settings to something sane. I'm sure I could do it by munging rc files,
but that requires restarting X :).

Use 'update-alternatives' to point to the default wm you want. That or
just unistall all the other ones :).

I've been unhappy with saw[fish|mill] and windowmaker...
