Quote (cbagger01 @ Feb. 09 2006,13:04) | The XFCE desktop environment is a nice compromise between performance (resource usage) and functionality.
It is not as lightweight as Fluxbox or JWM, but it is much better than hogs like KDE or GNOME.
I can understand why people would like XFCE because it provides a nice user experience on most PCs that have been built in the last 8 years or so.
Anything older than that and you are better off with Fluxbox or JWM or even TWM. |
Now ive tried to install icewm a couple times using mydsl. it installs but after I switch window managers it goes into icewm fine. but when I go back to fluxbox its totally jacked up. eitherthe desktop icons go bye bye or they get all off kilter. anyone have this happen? Also in icewm it seems apt get is the only way to update. I dont mind doing this but still havent been able to get apt get to work.
