Sorry ive been to the site and looked for stuff but im not having any luck sept screens What exactly is flux box?

Fluxbox is a Window manager and can be used instead of KDE or Gnome. Other window managers are IceWM, TWM.

Go to http://fluxbox.sourceforge.net/ for more details.

In case you are a little unsure about what a Window Manager is, here's a brief breakdown.

In (the more recent versions of) Windows you have 3 principle layers:
+ The kernel (controls general hardware calls)
+ The GUI component... MS reckon it's called Explorer. Personally I think it should be called "Lost".
+ The applications.

In Linux you have more layers at work to get your GUI applications runnings.
+ The kernel
+ The X server (on your machine)
+ The X client (on your machine too)
+ The Window Manager
(+ Optionally the Desktop Environment like KDE/Gnome).
+ The application itself.

The X component provides your computer with a way to communicate with graphical hardware and input devices like keyboards and mice. The Window Manager does just that - it controls what your windows, dialogues, widgets, etc all look like. And then the application runs on top.

The application asks the Window Manager to put a window on the screen at position X, Y and size X, Y. The WM tells X how to draw it - what it should look like. X then draws it.

So, there we have it. Flux Box is a Window Manager. It is a very configurable and extremely light-weight WM meaning that it runs smoothly and looks good on almost all hardware.

Hope this hyper-verbosity helps a little

windows managers are not evorionments!, altho the evironments like kde and gone all come with windows amnagers, window managers do not replace then, kde and gone are just a big colection of software that is used to run on the x server, they come with with the managers, and widgets and whatnot,

But window managers DO replace environments....you can run a full graphical system without trouble using nothing but a window manager. The environment is merely additional tools. In fact, you don't even need a window manager. You could run a fully usable X-enabled system using only a terminal window to control your applications.
