Subject: wm-ng: make sure fluxbox is present, otherwise fall back to x-window-manager or error... 
X-Git-Tag: v1.4.6~1
X-Git-Url: http://git.grml.org/?p=grml-scripts.git;a=commitdiff_plain;h=e2295813ea9693d34f541a790eff8ec387bbb107

wm-ng: make sure fluxbox is present, otherwise fall back to x-window-manager or error out.

If fluxbox is not installed but wm-ng is present
then make sure wm-ng tries to fall back to
the configured x-window-manager, unless it
points back to fluxbox or wm-ng again.
Otherwise error out with an according error message.
