3.10: Will Wine run under any X window manager?

Wine is window manager independent, so the X window manager you choose to
run has no bearing on your ability to run MS Windows programs under Wine.
Wine uses standard X libraries, so no additional ones are needed. Wine has
its own window management, which acts like MS Windows. It can be turned
off to use the native window manager with the -managed command-line
switch.
