I have tested many different setups with this box, several different
OpenBSD versions, and two FreeBSD versions; I am settled on OpenBSD 5.3
now. I have fvwm2, which works great, R-2.15, also works well,
Firefox3.6, also works well. Everything is very stable, and I am really
impressed with fvwm2. I have 2 GB of memory installed, and running top
indicates, only about 600 MG is ever used, zero use of swap. This box is
12 years old, and OpenBSd has it working better than it did 10 years ago,
when I ran Solaris 9 on it.
Issues: Thunar does not work with xfce, nor does
evolution, epiphany, or claws-mail.
For email I compiled pine 4.64, and it works very well.
The kernel I am using is #40. I am hesitant to
upgrade to version 5.4, because everything works!
