Hi all,

 I got my Libretto 100ct about 6 months ago, linux didn't support my
 PC Card floppy (Toshiba), and I was lazy, so I just left winME on it
 until just recently I grew extremely fedup with how useless it was to
 me as a usefull system (and my hand was cramping using that screen mouse
 thing).

 FreeBSD saved the day, since it uses the BIOS calls to the floppy device
 for most of the installation, I was able to do an FTP install booting
 off the floppy install disks.

 Now I installed the X port, and am trying to find a windowmanager which
 will allow me to use the keyboard for all (or most) operations. I 
 wondering if anyone can reccomend to me what they find works (if you
 use it with your libretto even better).

 I have tried ion, evilwm, and ratpoison. They all have their ups and
 downs. I think evilwm is pretty nice, except it has lack of keybinding
 support, and window control features. 

 What can people suggest for a lightweight, keyboard focused WM?
