[luau] Lost my Window Manager in GNOME

You were missing your panel too?  Sawfish is the window manager, it has
nothing to
with the panel, if you bring up a terminal and type

sawfish & disown & exit

it doesn't give you your window decorations back?
have you tried other window managers?

twm & disown & exit

kwm & disown & exit

etc?

Maybe you don't have sawfish installed anymore.

Ray,

The "sawfish & disown & exit" worked perfectly... thank you very much... the 
only thing I'm missing now is the "Virtual Screen"  I think it's the one 
with four blocks and you can choose any one of them to use.
