Fluxbox, The Slickest Window Manager...

...you've never heard of.
It should be pointed out that the instructions at the Fluxbox site for making Fluxbox your default window manager only apply if you are starting X from the console. If you have Mandrake configured for a graphical login, there aren't any other steps necessary beyond installing the rpm. This worked very well on my test system. I only had to logout and log back in selecting Fluxbox as my window manager. Instructions for users that run "startx" from the console are included at the Fluxbox Web site and, are reasonably well written.
