Flux is nice, pity its not working for you. Have you tried xfce4, its
decent, fairly lightweight. Im a big enligtenment fan, so mostly I use

(much).

I'm starting to think the problem is Ubuntu. It appears to
be rather tightly linked to Gnome, so that other WMs are
treated as bastard children.
I will be abandoning Ubuntu since it doesn't support my
unusual monitor. And since there is no XF86Config file,
I can't fix it.
Once I get back to a working Debian I will try FB again.

Subject: [Eug-lug] Fluxbox?
I finally had to logout and reboot. (Moving my computer.)
When I brought it up again I found, to my shock, that KDE
was not longer on my computer. And apt-get install failed.
The fail message implied that there was something
wrong with the package.
OK. Fine. I had been planning to migrate from KDE anyway.
So lets try Fluxbox; recommended by several folks on this
list almost a year ago.
Installs OK. But it doesn't work. Oh, it comes up. And I
can start things like terminals. But I can't resize them.
The decorations are completely missing.
So I installed several others: blackbox, fvwm, wmaker. All
of them can resize terminals. The online FAQ for fluxbox is
worthless, mostly talking about how to implement eye candy.
Fluxbox is all fluxed up. I don't know where to look. Any
hints?
