[ydl-gen] Alternative Window Managers

Hi,

I'd like to try a couple of alternative window managers in ydl-6.

I compiled jwm, but am unable to get it to run in ydl using the following:

~/.xinitrc
exec /usr/bin/jwm &

~/.xserverrc
exec /usr/bin/X -nolisten tcp

I guess there must be more to this in ydl, where do you change the 
window manager to use?

Also, how do you exit the window manager to a console (not <ctrl - 
alt - f1> as this leaves X running)?

Thanks
John
