Fluxbox


I am looking for a lightweight wm to use w/ my gnome installation, metacity runs sooooo slow. I tried enlightenment, but gnome started like 5 min. after enlightenment did. So now I'm looking at Fluxbox. Any opionins? Anything you guys think is faster (speed is my biggest concern).

Flux is pretty slick. Ratpoison is quicker. And there's a couple others
out there, but I'm used to Flux, and it does all I need ;}


Cheers,
Tink
