I'm using blackbox and for the filemanger I use either xftree(which I think comes with xfce which I also have installed) and also I find Endeavour Mark 2 is quite good(it's just listed as endeavour tho if you do an emerge search). It has a nice archiver in it, image browser, and the usual filemanger(except it also has a recycle bin along with one or two other things). I liked nautilus but didn't want to have to install all that goes with it so opted to try endeavour and xftree. As for a replacement to the idesk thing try the wm dock app called wmappl. Note you need 16x16 icons for it... but it's quite handy for launching things. I'm using several of the wm dock apps in the silt and find them quite handy. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
