Hi. I have a few old ThinkPads here, and I'd like to explore getting OpenBSD running as a lightweight desktop computer.
I don't need a lot, I spend most of my time at a shell prompt, but I'm thinking I need a better window manager, possibly Firefox (or a recommended lightweight alternative) and any invaluable X-based utilities. I've had trouble getting the laptop connected to my local WiFi network, despite having compatible cards and a straightforward security config (WPA2), despite having followed the documentation. If there's a network-connection-manager GUI available, that would be nice, but isn't essential. I know how to install things via the ports, but traversing the directory structure to find useful packages is painful. If there's a more friendly way to search for and discover new/interesting ports packages, I'd appreciate a link. Thanks.
