This is a question for those of you who are running a different
window manager on top of (actually instead of) the XNeWS 
postscript window manager. I finally got my OSF/MOTIF window
manager to compile and run (after taking off the optimization option!)
but now I am having trouble "removing" the XNeWS window manager.

I am running a SPARC Station 1, with SunOS 4.0.3c,
with 1.0 OpenWindows (Beta 2) server, and am now trying to use the
Motif 1.0 Window manager. 

The OpenWindows documentation says to type the following commands while
running the server:
	psh
	stopwm
At this point, I am supposed to be able to run another window manager.
WRONG!!! Only new clients are looked after by the new window manager.
Any clients that were started up with the server are inactive.


What am I doing wrong? Can/should I modify the init.ps file in 
$OPENWINHOME/etc/NeWS? Can I not start up with a different window
manager?

Thx in advance.
