I installed the RH 5.2 with the default Win95 like Windows Manager. Could
someone explain how to change it to another manager supplied with original
RH distribution?
Thanks

Andre,

    One way is to edit the .wm_style in your home dir and put MWM or one of the other window managers in the file and connent out the the default.  If the .wm_style file is not there just make the file using vi or another text editor and put the window manager you want into the file.  Hope this helps.  Please send me a e-mail to let me know if it worked just send it to me off the list.
