Yes, but stuff like Firefox which relies on non-standard library paths
(outside the normal ldconfig paths) can't use it, IIRC.

Additionally, as pointed out, it isn't enabled yet.

That's true, but once everything is loaded and the system has been

bash may be bloatware, but it should still open rather fast on a

I am especially fond of w3m, and yes, I am aware that it does graphics
too. I do use dillo every now and then, but are beginning to lean more

No need to be not sure about KDE.

dillo is fast but useless. You can get the same thing with any of the console 
browsers like w3m,lynx,elinks etc...

I have been very very happy with windowmaker so far.

Performance is amazing, very clean neat design and works very well on old 
hardware.

I believe X does play a role as long as apps don't screw up which they usually 
do.

Best,
