I prefer KDE and it's easy to install. Fluxbox doesn't really need less resources, if people like to have something that needs less resources, they should use something frame based instead of a WM/DE, I like Ion very much, but at the moment I'm only using KDE3, KDE4 and GNOME for my Linux. Maybe there are some default settings for 64 Studio taht can cause confusion. My KDE for 64 Studio has a KPowersafe, where CPU Frequency Policy isn't supported. I guess that there might be things like that for people who install fluxbox. It's easy to install any WM/DE alternative, but maybe they have troubles with some special settings. I prefer GNOME instead of Fluxbox, or better KDE3, but more important will be, to have applications like jackEQ and better mixing consoles like this, jconv, jack_snapshot, qtractor and rakarrak.
