[glug-t] Adding New WIndow Managers to gdmgreeter....

Go to../usr/share/apps/switchdesk 
and you will find files like Xclients.gnome,Xclients.kde so make a file for 
your chosen window manager and make it excutable...as for the contents of the 
file...keep it similar to other Xclients.xxx 

And now edit the file: 
/etc/X11/xdm/Xsession 

and check out the section that calls window managers and add a entry for your 
chosen window manager..as you will see this file actually 
calls /usr/share/apps/switchdesk/Xclients.xxx . 

And now go to the directory 
/etc/X11/gdm/Session 
and create a new file having name of your Window Manager and for the contents 
of this file..you will find files like GNOME,KDE in the directory so keep the 
contents of the new file similar to those files....and make it executable.. 

And now simply restart gdm with command: 
#gdm-restart 

And new window Managers will be added to the gdmgreeter.. 
I have some 5 window managers on my computer...
