Which Is The Fastest Wm?

[alee16]

I'm running Icewm, but whenever I plug in a usb device or unplug one, the menu dissapears from the bottom, anyone have the same problem or a solution?

IceWM faster and small, but full functional

Agree. Two thumbs up!

I'm using icewm on beta3 and have never come across such a problem. Sorry, can't help.

Me neither. Things run just fine.
I am growing to love icewm + Rox desktop in Beta3.
Apps can run truly full screen. Panel can hide freely. With igorekk's configuration tools I can do a simple quick and dirty trick to get brightness setting (setfl +, setfl -) to work.
Using the builtin icewm and the Rox themes, the desktop looks gorgeous.
Though I still feel that windowmaker runs faster and allows for more customizations.

When I ran Windowmaker, something was wrong with the keymap.  In beta4, I noticed that whenever I logged out of any window manager that the "a" key wouldn't work unless I pressed Fn + a.  But in Windowmaker, it has the same problem.

With Icewm, it might be a problem with having matchbox + rox + icewm all at the same time.  How did you setup your Icewm + rox combination?

No special tweaks are needed.
Just install the icewm pacakages from the feed.
Setting up Rox is nothing more than commenting out a line and add a new one, as described in loji's page http://www.thesounddesign.com/zaurus/beta3.htm or this page http://zaurus.spy.org/feeds/jedhead/static...ic050213-150726.
Reboot and voila!
Customize the themes to your liking. icewm already has some nice builtin (i particular like lnfadel2 Overloaded. For Rox you may want to check out http://zaurus.spy.org/feeds/jedhead/rox-themes/
igorekk's icewm configurations tools, which are found in a thread here, are very useful.
There are also a couple of other threads discussing icewm in the forum.
Good luck!
