Thomas: what dock do you use? I tried KSmoothdock and Kooldock, but both were buggy as hell and crashed from time to time.

I think that was kxdocker. It didn't crash, but some of the plugins didn't work? Couldn't get the pager to show up, I might have kept using it if it worked.

I just tried kxdocker, not a good experience.. half of it was black in the background and some other problems. Any other suggestions for a similar application? :)

Not bad. Screenshot attached (800x600, running in a VMware). Crashed once, though. Anyways, I am switching to Gnome, KDE is too bloated :(

Bryan, first you will need to install the kxdocker-resuorces package :P otherwise theres nothinging there but the bar, no buttons, images, etc. Then see if you can't figure out how to install the CVS version.

Does anyone use FVWM? It's supposed to be a customisable window manager that can look like any of the other window managers. I'll be getting it when my computer is fixed.

I took a look at FVWM.org - it does seem very customizable. I wonder, is it as stable as fluxbox or xfce? I'll have to try it sometime. :)

For customization and speed I prefer IceWM. However, I have Fluxbox running in my DSL in the older computer. The computer boots much faster than this one, in less than 30 seconds.

FVWM is looking pretty nice. The Redmond98 theme hits the spot well, I actually feel like I could be slightly more productive with this window manager. :P
