      Hi, I just installed Antix for the first time and decided to try herbstluftwm desktop. However, I’d like to change it back to ICEWM OR JWM but can’t see how to do it.
      (The help file isn’t so intuitive.) Can someone tell me how to get back to another window manager?

        hi rhizome,

        From the login screen hit F1 key to change the window manager then login and back out and
        it will be the default next time you login.
        You can type quit to exit herbstluftwm.
        The default on the live dvd and first install is the Icewm-Rox but a lot of users
        prefer Icewm-Spacefm the difference is the default file manager in it.
