I like blackbox but I don't particularly care for the toolbar. I use gkrellm, various stuff in the silt, and if I'm using bbpager I find the desktop scroll through on the tool bar pointless.(tho yes the program one has it's uses but often I just select "lower" when clicking on a window to get at what is behind it) > also there are some cool applications to use with openbox, made by the > same guys who did openbox: > > epist - keybindings I'm not sure why but epist isn't working on the openbox I have installed. Unless I'm using it wrong. With blackbox I use bbconf/bbkeys. > docker - systemtray like app compatible with gnome and kde One of the features of the docker was that it can allow 2 docks wasn't it? I'm one of those people that likes some of the little wm dock apps however depending on what I'm using they don't all neatly fit in one(they scroll off the screen). Menu wise I think openbox was the easier to mess with for changing to something that matched my blackbox. Waimea was a bit more picky on the odd thing. I do like waimea's "clean"(ie toolbar free) desktop but still adjusting to how you switch desktops. I was a bit weirded on the vertical ones so now mine is 4x1 instead of 3x3. > to be fair i will say that these apps also work with most of the other > windowmanagers. Yes it seems most blackbox family stuff is compatable with eachother tho I was suprised to see somewhere that one non blackbox wm was using bbpager. -- Susie VE7 HFA [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://arienadean.tripod.com/ ----------------------------------------------------------------------- Dawn is nature's way of telling you to go to bed. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] mailing list
