Estou tentando executar meu gerenciador de janelas de forma independente no Debian 7 (ou seja, sem o Gnome 3, que está instalado atualmente). Aparentemente o Gnome já está executando o muttergerenciador de janelas:
$ wmctrl -m
Name: Mutter
Class: N/A
PID: N/A
Window manager's "showing the desktop" mode: N/A
Não consigo encontrar o executável mutter para executá-lo. Não está no $PATHe nenhum dos resultados locate mutterparece executável para mim: (observe que /usr/share/mutter/ambos /usr/lib/mutter/são diretórios na saída abaixo)

Para fazer o gerenciador de janelas rodar, pensei que eu simplesmente desligaria o Gnome Desktop Manager e executaria o X assim .xinitrc:
$ /etc/init.d/gdm3 stop
$ cat .xinitrc
#!/bin/bash
[[ -f ~/.Xresources ]] && xrdb -merge ~/.Xresources
exec mutter
exec xterm -maximized
$ startx
Este é o caminho certo para iniciar um xterm com o gerenciador de janelas ativado? Acho que me lembro de ter lido em algum lugar que apenas um execé permitido .xinitrc, então talvez eu esteja tentando fazer isso da maneira errada?

exec muttersubstitui o script por mutter, então nada abaixo dessa linha é executado. Se você quiser correr xtermantes mutter:
xterm -maximized &
exec mutter
Se você quiser correr mutterantes xterm:
mutter &
wm_pid=$!
xterm -maximized &
wait $wm_pid
Como alternativa, configure o mutter para ser executado xterm -maximizedquando for iniciado. Não sei se isso é possível — o mutter foi projetado para não ser configurável.
Quanto a encontrar o executável mutter, ele já está no caminho de busca (em /usr/bin) se você instalou através do gerenciador de pacotes, não tem nada a fazer.
