Fluxbox in Amigo?

Possibility, or glue-induced fantasy?

It's in there! Just run 'xwmconfig' from the command line or within an xterm window. there you can choose the fluxbox window manager. then restart X. Voila!

OK, I tried that, and it said I could choose WMaker, or somthing else, but not Fluxbox. I'm using the most recent version on the page, am I doing something wrong? I tried it using both xterm once I'd gotten inside WMaker, and once at the boot prompt before I hit "startx".

Sorry, mixed up on my versions... i thought I had put fluxbox in at the last.
Okay, just install the fluxbox pkg for slack-9.1 from Slackware or from linuxpackages.net. I think Slackaware has two available, one in the /xap folder and one in /extras (later 'non-stable', but works fine).

You shouldn't need anything els as the cxxlibs (C++) are already installed. fluxbox doesn't have any other dependencies besides X-libs, etc.
