I must admit, I tried Fluxbox a long time ago. Even on this fast rig, AMD2500+, it was nice and fast. I just like KDE and all the eye candy. I have a slide show for my desktop. Love my ladies. LOL That fluxbox sure is fast. It would be great for a slow rig, 400MHz or less. Would make a good light desktop for a noobie on a server since it is so light. I like you did not like Gnome at all. Maybe if I had a slower rig. I ran KDE on a 400MHz machine before, bloated Mandrake at that. LOL Each his/her own. Dale :-) I can't believe I just connected and I can send email with Mozilla. If my connection would just speed up a bit. o_O -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
