Motif Window Manager 

To get CDE's window manager (without the desktop suite), 

yum install openmotif

Configure the window manager, 

cd ~/

cp /etc/X11/mwm/system.mwmrc .mwmrc.dist

cp .mwmrc.dist .mwmrc

vi .mwmrc

replace those lines, 

      Alt<Btn1Down>   window|icon     f.lower

!     Alt<Btn2Down>   window|icon     f.resize

!     Alt<Btn3Down>   window|icon     f.move

...

      Alt<Btn1Down>   window|icon     f.lower

!     Alt<Btn2Down>   window|icon     f.resize

!     Alt<Btn3Down>   window|icon     f.move

with those, 

      Alt<Btn3Down>   window|icon     f.resize

      Alt<Btn1Down>   window|icon     f.move

...

!     Alt<Btn1Down>   window|icon     f.lower

      Alt<Btn3Down>   window|icon     f.resize

      Alt<Btn1Down>   window|icon     f.move

...

!     Alt<Btn1Down>   window|icon     f.lower

      Alt<Btn3Down>   window|icon     f.resize

      Alt<Btn1Down>   window|icon     f.move

Configure window manager's layout, 

vi ~/.Xresources

copy/paste both,
