Try WindowMaker or BlackBox. Lite and fast! :) WindowMaker is involved in the GNUStep collection which seems to be of growing popularity as it has libraries that can be coded in objective C. This is also similar to the NextStep stuff that works on Mac OSX! BlackBox is just plain fast :). But if you are one of those people who hate C++ and everything that comes out of it don't use it... BlackBox is 100% C++ code. Dave On Tue, Jul 17, 2001 at 09:10:50PM -0700, Bsd Newbie wrote: > > I have an inexpensive bookpc that uses the SiS630 > chipset.
