I might as well weigh in here in the spirit of Debian and just say that I've never used Ice but I have used Fluxbox for a time after using Blackbox and thought Fluxbox was a bit too fiddly so decided to try the UDE, that's your Unix Desktop Environment, and I found it to be just right. UDE is the bone of stability even in Sid and I like the uber simplicity and lightness of being. In fact it is curiously addictive once you know the controls. I would just venture to say it is the zen of desktop envirnoments. > the relatively sparse toolbar may put you (and him) off. With UDE there is only a black field with an X for a cursor. If that's alarming you have instead a choice of British racing green or purple haze, there being, nothing else. UDE likes a three button mouse or a mouse with a wheel that also works as a middle button. The one I use is a Logitech laser USB radio mouse. -- CK
