I am getting started with OpenBSD (using VirtualBox) and would like to know how one can try and choose between the window managers FVWM, TWM and CWM.
In order to run a specific window manager: Is there some configuration file to modify? Or some specific command to run?
There is a lot of information on the net, but nothing clear in what I read.
The simplest way to run X on OpenBSD is with the xenodm display manager. Enable it at boot :
# rcctl enable xenodm
# rcctl start xenodm
After that, you can customize your X session by creating a $HOME/.xsession script to start your window manager. Example with FVWM :
export ENV=$HOME/.kshrc
exec fvwm
See xinit manpage and FAQ for the X Widnow System.
