FreeBSD does not neccessarially install X windows by default, and hence does not have a default window manager like say RedHat which has developed thier own cross of gnome and kde. When you install x.org <http://x.org> I belive it will install twm as a default WM. developer recommended window manager? > easiest to install? I would try using packages to install window managers while checking things out. You really do not gain that much by installiing things like this from ports performance wise (that is unless you are using aggressive compile time optimizations or passing non-standard variables to configure), once you find what WM you find most usable you can always remove the packages and install your windowmanger of choice from ports. -p -- ~~o0OO0o~~ Pete Wright www.nycbug.org <http://www.nycbug.org> NYC's *BSD User Group _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
