Michal, I ran into the same thing trying to replace metacity with e16. The problem is that
gnome expects to find a desktop file in /usr/share/applications matching the value in
desktop/gnome/session/required_components/windowmanager.. in your case it's looking
for /usr/share/applications/wmaker.desktop.. and if that desktop file isn't there, it
won't start your window manager, logging "WARNING: Unable to find provider
'wmaker' of required component 'windowmanager'" to
~/.xsessions-error.
Adding a wmaker.desktop file to /usr/share/applications should fix this.. if windowmaker
has one in /usr/share/xsessions you can copy it over and change its
"Type=Xsession" line to "Type=Application", otherwise you can copy and
adapt the metacity.desktop that's already there.
