Default A few more questions

Greetings to all:

Thanks, jggmi - I'll read up on the "pkg_info -L" myself later this week.

I've a couple of GNOME related questions:

1) GDM - I've downloaded xfce and WindowMaker to check them out. xfce shows up on as an option on my gdm; but WindowMaker doesn't - I need to "exec wmaker" on the Failsafe Terminal to call it up.

I've an older machine, so I'm actually enjoying the performance increase xfce is giving me.

Q:What's the proper way of "adding" Window Managers and Desktop Environments as an X option for the GDM? (edit - yeah, it's probably in the pkg_info somewhere;but if it's on top of someone's tongue...)

2) When logging off from GNOME, I've been getting a message indicating that an "Unknown" process is still on; and wants me to either Log off anyway, Cancel, or Lock my Window. Noticed that we don't have the GNOME System Monitor available in this port, so I don't know which process this is a result of.

Q: Which tools would help identify these "Unknown Processes"? The GNOME Logout warning won't allow me to call up more info on that process.

Thank you.
