Well, you need to find where the afterstep binary is.
(I have no idea where the rpm puts it since i compiled it myself)
Then check that the .steprc is in your home.

create [ or alter ] a file

called .xinitrc in your ~/. and the simplest content that you can put in
would be something like this.


exec /[path to afterstep]/afterstep


Also make sure the module path is correct in .steprc (If you don't have one
I could mail you one)

Or you could just grab the source tar ball from www.afterstep.org and the
installme script does everyting for you.
