  Is it possible to change 'fvwm' window manager which is default one
when I execute 'startx' in command line to 'olwm' (OpenLook window
manager)?
  I already tried to execute 'olvm' in command line but it doesn't
work. What's wrong? Please Help! Thanks!

Try putting the `olvm' command in your .xinitrc file.

If you don't have one already, make a file called .xinitrc in your
home directory. Everytime you `startx' this file is sourced. Mine follows
as an example:

xrdb -merge ~/.Xdefaults
xli -onroot /usr/local/pics/julia.gif
xclock -bg tan  -digital -geometry +135+88 &
xload -geometry +0+180 &
xterm -bg snow3 -fg black -sb -sl 500 -T SuperUser -geometry 90x30+130+130 &
xhost +
fvwm

Note that I use fvwm :-) (you probably have more than my 8M of RAM)

Hope this helps,

Change this to exec fvwm to save a little bit of memory. It would've been
swapped out anyway (the shell running .xinitrc) but it's nicer to use exec
for the last command, I reckon.

I have 4M. I personally would not touch olvm with *somebody else's* barge
pole. :)
