Enlightenment is a very underrated window manager choice, in my opinion. It still looks very pretty and is very configurable. There is a packaging bug with the latest version of Enlightement in the 21.10 repo which means it doesn’t work correctly. The fix is to set the suid bit on the ‘enlightenment_system’ binary. So:
sudo apt install enlightenment
sudo find /usr/lib -type f -name enlightenment_system -exec sudo chmod 4755 {} \;
- Log out of Ubuntu
- Click the settings cog in the bottom right to change your Window manager to enlightenment
- Log on and the settings wizard will help you configure Enlightenment
