I use Enlightenment, by itself. I've used it for some time now. My only complaint about it is actually an "issue of Xinerama" since I run DualHead on my workstation. Sridhar mentioned that Enlightenment can be a resources hog, which I've never noticed. I have a 1.2 Athlon in my machine and 768 Mb RAM, so maybe it's just that I have a lot of resources to use, but even when I was in a machine that had only a PII 400 w/128 Mb RAM, I had no problem. It was much less a resource hog then KDE, and I've always hated GNOME. (The only think I like about GNOME is the foot icon! :0) The only thing that I've noticed that runs any smoother is XFce. I also like the way it runs and handles things. If you install Enlightenment, or updated it, I would suggest you isntall the enlightenment-conf RPMs/source as well. So you have the E-Leacy tools as well. That's what I use to do some of the configurations. You can set up hotkeys for apps, you can setup the backgrounds and things like that. I have "tried" Sawfish, but not long enough to really know how to use it. I wasn't that impressed with my 30 seconds of use to start using it more often! :0) tdh -- T.
