I'm not having luck getting XMonad to run in 11.10 (x64, fresh install) with a gnome fallback session. I've tried adapting the instructions from



http://markhansen.co.nz/xmonad-ubuntu-lucid/



and



http://markhansen.co.nz/xmonad-ubuntu-oneiric/



but with no luck. If anyone has ideas, I'd like to hear them.

A quick fix: Log in, then execute killall metacity & xmonad.



It seems to work, though I'm having intermittent keyboard and mouse issues that may or may not be related to this solution.



Also, given that this works, you'd think I could just swap out the window manager value in /usr/share/gnome-session/sessions/gnome-classic.session, but when I change the value, nothing happens.
