If that fails, I have another idea, but it is kind of draconian, and may
cut you off from Gnome.  I'll hold it for now.

In my screwing around, I determined what you do NOT want to do.  If you
hit the configuration button (looks like a tool box) and select window
managers, you could add AfterStep to the list of available WMs, but
don't.  In the first place, Gnome carps about AS not being 100% Gnome
compliant, and you wind up with mixed functionality, some of which
doesn't work.  Just DON'T do it.  It was after I did that, that I
couldn't get Enlightenment back.
