I made install all three programs. I fixed up /etc/X11/XF86Config for the resolution and refresh rate, and /etc/X11/xinit (something along that path), so that instead of firing up the default windows manager, it fires up blackbox. Did I do that correctly? You know how VNC creates a default ~/.vnc/xstartup? Is there a way to automically specify xstartup to use blackbox, instead of the default windows manager? Its rather annoying to configure ~/.vnc/xstartup so that it starts up blackbox instead of that twm.
