Thanks much!
i did add the line
xterm &
to the .xinitrc file but no terminal showed up in the window.
The ~/.xsession-errors file had about 58 lines in it none of which
were obviously sawfish related, though i would bew happy to share it
as i am obviously a newby at this...
The ~/.xsession-errors.old file was however:
openConnection: connect: No such file or directory
cannot connect to brltty at :0
Unbound variable: defvar-setq
Which indicated an inability to connect with the Lisp engine ... smewhere.
The "software Center" did install
rep-gtk 1:0.90.0-2build1
librep9 0.90.2-1.3
sawfish 1:1.5.3-2build1

And for troubleshooting I'd add xterm invocation here.

Then I'd look at log file ~/.xsession-errors.

subject: installing sawfish in xubuntu
i installed sawfish in xubuntu 1204 with the "software Center" (this
only has sawfish 1:1.5.3-2build1)
Then set the .xinitrc as suggested by Robert to:
#!/bin/sh
xscreensaver -no-splash &
sawfish &
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch xfce4-session
i the put the "hello world app suggested by Chris in
http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gnome-announce-list/2011-March/msg00039.html
to wit:
(defvar-setq top-left-corner-function
(lambda () (display-message "hello world")))
But when i chose sawfish in my logon i got just a background pic ...
no key combo did anything and the "hello world" app did not perform.
Not even Alt-F1 worked. i had to do a power cycle to get the machines
attention back.
Suggestions?
