DSL Tips and Tricks :: Fastest Window Manager Setup

Ah, you're no fun

Besides, the question clearly states "Is Fluxbox really as fast as it gets, regardless of appearance?". No mention of XWindows at all :;):

But the topic overrides everything :P

"Fastest Window Manager Setup" ... though I suppose you could vote for not using X at all

You could vote for not using X at all, though it would throw off a lot of the things I'm trying to use. One thing I could easily do though, to pull a few more frames out of UT2004, is kill X while I'm playing. Thanks for the advice, all - Fluxbox it is!

I don't see how this would work....if you kill X it takes every X-dependent application with it.

One thing you can do, though, is use UT2004 as your window manager when you play it. This way X will run, but fluxbox will not.
