I like BlackBox because it is a minimal window manager. Why add clutter to the Aqua Desktop ? Also, I put my Dock on the side and BlackBox has a nice little task-bar that sits at the bottom of the screen.

BlackBox is available as a Fink Package

I'm looking for a decent looking window manager rather than the one that is built into the basic xfree86 package. Any suggestions? None of the ones I'm interested in (KDE, Gnome, XFCE) is available in the fink packages list.

Another question. I would like to have X server running somewhere unobtrusively all the time so that I can run X apps without having to call startx first. Is this a bad idea? If not, where is a good place to put startup options like this?

I've also noticed that if I run startx from the command line I keep getting output to my terminal while X is running. Is there a way to turn this off?
