Re: [STUMP] StumpWM in 13.10

[David Bjergaard]

Hi David,

Thank you! I wouldn't have thought to try searching for how to restart
the service rather than starting it directly.  I'll try this when I get
home and report my results (especially since ubuntu is such a popular
distribution).  

Cheers,

    Dave
