Post by GiuTor »

Hi,

which one am I effectively running?

Code: Select all

 cat /etc/X11/default-display-manager 
/usr/sbin/lightdm
gt@gt-Aspire-E1-570:~$

Code: Select all

 wmctrl -m
Name: Metacity (Marco)
Class: N/A
PID: N/A
Window manager's "showing the desktop" mode: N/A
gt@gt-Aspire-E1-570:~$
:? :? :?
