Restart Workspace Manager

Hi,

is anybody aware of a possibility to restart the CDE 2.1.0 workspace manager by using a HP-UX-command rather than to push the button in the Workspace Menu (f.restart)?

Thank you very much for your input.
Bye

Find the dtwm process that belongs to you, this is you window manager. Kill it (your X session shouldnt terminate), and then from the command line export your DISPLAY variable to that of the X session you just killed the dtwm process from, then restart dtwm; nohup dtwm&
This will effectively do the same as restarting your workspace manager.
