light window manager
 
Hi there!! I am searching for a
small
fast
low system-requirements
keyboard based commands
Lot of themes to choose

I have tried the icewm but i think the 20 mbs are so musch for what it gives.. I also find it very difficult to configure it and it isn;t as fast as i need..

Secondly i have tried the window maked... I have noticed that so littles things can be performed from keyboard.....I can't navigate through ,menu with the keyboards buttons...


Do u have any suggestions?

BTW: Do not recommend me Gnome and KDE (they are so heavy :P)

Mind you, something like xfce may be the 'in between' solution you are looking for???

How low are your specs? If Blackbox will run, Fluxbox will run according to www.fluxbox.org ....
