How do I install a different Window Manager?

Zenurik

I don't like the budgie WM on Solus 4, can anyone point me to a tutorial on how to install and make default a different one, like Metacity or Openbox?

Openbox is in the repo, but you're on your own to configure it, basically.

Click on the Budgie icon next to your username and select your preferred window manager
Enter password, log in

Okay, I managed to install one. I used Marco; and managed to find the settings using the god-sent Dconf editor. It does not appear in the login screen, but it is easy to set it up as autostart.
One problem though, when I switch to it my wallpaper dissappears, the screen goes black and I cannot put it back!
