Launching GNOME desktop environment

GNOME is a desktop environment that is independent and self-supporting in terms of how it controls interactivity between applications and other features. GNOME works with a variety of window managers. The window manager is what controls the window borders, window decorations, and the functionality of those windows. Currently there are about three or four window managers that are considered GNOME compliant. Being GNOME compliant means much more than simply being able to run with GNOME; it also means being aware of GNOME and want GNOME offers. This includes session management, desktop settings, and interactivity with applications such as GNOME Pager.

The Default Window Manager for this release of Red Hat Linux is a window manager called Enlightenment. Within this manager is a tool that allows configuration.

To launch the Enlightenment configuration tool, you may access the GNOME Control Center and choose the Window Manager Capplet from the Desktop group. If Enlightenment was activated as your window manager, you may run E-conf by clicking the Run Configuration tool for Enlightenment button.

Another way to launch E-conf is by clicking your middle mouse button or both mouse buttons, if you have emulation, on the desktop and choosing the Enlightenment Configuration item from the pop-up menu.
