Has few menu items, none except "exit" works.

Gnome/openbox isn't obviously different from gnome.

That's pretty standard for OpenBox, no?

I was wondering what to do with my F9<almost> system. I'd been having trouble with xen f8 and gone to rawhide which lead to much tribulation, and I'd just discovered that updated Xen Dom0 support isn't going to happen until F10.

While ponding where to go next, whether to risk the same problems with *suse or *ntu, I idly ran "apt-cache search 'window manager'" and installed the likely candidates.

However it is supposed to work, starting with a blank screen is unattractive.

I haven't figured out ratpoison either. Instead, I decided to play with KVM sans libvirt.

I have a page on it, though it's mostly written for people who've been
using fluxbox, but it gives some useful (imho) keyboard bindings.

If openbox (etc) is doing what it ought, that's fine. It seems very strange to me, and not something I care a lot about:-)

Now, what happened to xfce?
