[Eug-lug] Favourite WM/Desktop

[Allen Brown]

I didn't vote because I don't have a WM/Desktop that I like.  I
just have ones I dislike to varying degrees.

I used to like Gnome, but they made it like the Mac and removed
much of the configurability.  Well, sort of.  It was a pain that
every few weeks Gnome would forget the configuration I had given
it.  And editing those configuration files without using the GUI
appeared to be nearly impossible.

KDE is now driving me nuts.  It has some of the configurability
that Gnome used to have.  But it angers me that neither one of
them now allows me to move or resize a window without having it
pop to the top.

I've never used fluxbox.  What I'm hearing here sounds promising.
I dislike cluttering my screen.  Does it allow me to change from
room to room easily?  I tend to keep up to 12 rooms, and fill them
fully.
