I used to favour fluxbox. (In contrib), but I will bring joy to Joe Hills heart by saying that I now prefer pekwm.( No Mandrake RPMS unfortunately, but source here http://pekwm.org/ It is FAST FAST FAST, and the tabbed windows are cool. Combine pekwm with rox (RPMS in contrib), and in my opinion you have a great desktop for a low end computer. http://rox.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/index.php/ROX-Filer My pekwm desktop screenshot is here http://www.jennings.homelinux.net/modules.php?set_albumName=linux05&id=pekwm&op=modload&name=Gallery&file=index&include=view_photo.php derek -- www.jennings.homelinux.net http://twiki.mdklinuxfaq.org
