Hi
Is there an easy way to switch between i3 and openbox ?
I am not using display manager, just starting sessions from tty.
Would be nice to be able to switch to i3 from for example openbox right click menu.

Re: Switching between window managers
Many WMs (inc. openbox) support the --replace switch, which does what one would expect. AFAIK i3 doesn't, so you'd probably have to run a DM if that one is on the wishlist.
Once is happenstance. Twice is coincidence. Three times is enemy action. Four times is Official GNOME Policy.
