===Ubuntu=== [See below for version-specific instructions] I had tried above methods described by "simple hybrid", but they are not staight forward and didn't work. <pre> export WINDOW_MANAGER=/path to xmonad gnome-sesson </pre> If once I execute "gnome-wm" manually, after that it works, I got xmonad integrated in gnome well. However, once I switch to my gnome session, and then return back to my xmonad session, the xmonad window manager isn't run, just as I log into the gnome session. After delving into gnome-wm script and some analysis and many try, I found out why the plain script did not work. Because I had turned on the "auto save gnome session" function, I guess gnome-session wouldn't call gnome-wm again when I change from gnome session to xmonad session. So I disable the save session function, and remove the files in <code>.config/gnome-session/saved-session/*</code>. Finally it works! This indirectly prove the above guess is right. Actually I had put this script to xmonad-custom.start, then I can have gnome and xmonad session seperated, and they don't interfere with the other. I think this method is simple yet elegant, and easy to understand.
