Not *really* compatible with Gnome. On my workstation (RH 6.2), I'd get
constant complaints from Gnome that I wasn't running a Gnome-compliant
window manager. I've never had that problem running KDE pieces with WM.

I was so disgusted that I switched over to KDE for my workstation though I
run WM/KDE at home.
