Christian, As far as tiling window managers go I highly recommend Scrotwm [x11-wm/scrotwm]. The configuration is straight forward and getting it up and running is a breeze. I have been happily using it for the past few years and I don't see myself going back. Just keep in mind there aren't any bells and whistles included, just how a WM should be :D
