I know it's still experimental but e17 (http://www3.get-e.org/). It's very fast - even on my 300Mhz IMac. And it looks pretty too. Similar to fluxbox in use. Unfortunately the ebuilds have been pulled from the gentoo tree (if that's what distro you are using), I have the overlay if anyone wants it. You can probably find it online somewhere. -Bryan On Apr 13 2007, Isaac Atilano wrote: >I found xfce4 to be slow on my 300MHZ presario laptop.
