It's not too hard to compile it from the current mercurial sources. I like Openbox for my window manager (I like the ease with which I can rewrite the right-click menu), ROX-Filer for the file browser, lxpanel, Firefox and geany for the text editor (though I also use leafpad on my netbook). Xine is good for video and I use XawTV to watch TV.
