I Have to go with fluxbox. Very simple and the menu system is not as cluttered as Gnome's or KDE's panel. Still Gnome and KDE are nice because they come with every program under the sun that can get the task done.
...I voted for Fluxbox - but my really favourite is Fvwm-Crystal - fvwm made easy and beautiful - and nearly as light as Fluxbox! (great integration with MPD, too...)
best friendly regards and wishes for the New Year,
tami
Everybody is entitled to their own opinion but mine is that FVWM2 still kicks ass in simplicity! Not saying that FVWM2 is the best, but it still holds after all these years!
I vote for Compiz. I thought "nothing big, just an eye candy" before I used it, but my opinion changed as soon as I had the opportunity to try it. Scale plugin is simply awesome.
In my opinion Beryl is just some more eye candy when compared to Compiz, so the vote goes to the latter.
Tried Beryl/Compiz and loved it, but it got old and distracting and just became an unnecessary waste of resources not to mention that it's quite buggy and crashes often.
It's good for fun, but not for everyday computing. I use it like I use Frozen Bubble, occasionally when I am bored.
After many hours of web-searching and asking, asking, and trying, and asking and trying again, I've finally managed to run AIGLX on my Mandriva 2007. Althought till now I have some problems with it, my vote goes to compiz, because it impressed me.
