Description ronny.lampert 2002-10-15 08:29:10 UTC 
Description of Problem:
In the Reference-Guid at
http://www.redhat.com/docs/manuals/linux/RHL-8.0-Manual/ref-guide/s1-x-clients.html
(and also it's .pdf format) there is a horrible mistake in the section "window
managers":

mwm is NOT metacity window manager, but MOTIF window manager and is in paket
openmotif.
metacity is simply called 'metacity' and is in paket metacity.

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
All.

How Reproducible:
Reading documentation ;)
Comment 1 Tammy Fox 2002-10-15 16:29:58 UTC 
I am changing component to the appropriate manual.
Comment 2 Johnray Fuller 2002-10-18 21:02:31 UTC 
Thank you so much for catching this.

Not sure what happened here. There was a lot of change over on the very last day
in this section due to last minute changes to what we were shipping and I must
have somehow gotten *very* confused...

I will post an errata as soon as possible.

I have posted an errata and corrected the online docs.

Thanks again for pointing this out.
