thank you all for the response! Now I know there are blackbox, fvwm2, sawfish, and I found a super small one flwm. Most of them are only in Debian package, which need dpkg to install. I hesitate to reinstall everything from my debian CD.
Is there a way to install them in to my exsting Redhat box. I just uninstalled GNome and enlightment. I am using fvwm2 now. but I want to try flwm. thank you Ben LinuxKnight wrote: > At 05:31 PM 10/23/00 -0400, Benjamin F.
