My pref is WindowMaker. I just installed it on a system very similar to what you describe: P133 16MB. Before frying the mobo, WindowMaker was running nicely, though colors are dithered at 8bpp with the pitiful on-board video this box had (1MB S3V driver). If your card will support 16 bpp color depth at your desired resolution, wmaker's highly recommended. Mobo friage appeared to have happened while trying a new video card on the box....
