How to start any window manager in newly configured X server(having MPX support)

[Dan Nicholson]

Can you send these questions to xorg at lists.x.org next time? xorg-devel
is supposed to be for development of the software.

You would need to separately configure gdm to use your new xserver,
since it's probably set up to use your distro's. Just run a window
manager in your .xinitrc.

twm &
exec xterm

Or do something like "exec gnome-session". The default xinitrc on your
distro probably works great, too.
