And what about Fvwm? My setup does not really match modern UI concept (no taskbar, iconify to desktop icon, floating panel with pager and clock) and the whole thing with tpb and other hooks into thinkpad ACPI uses about 5megs RSS. IIRC my friend uses fvwm with more involved configuration (taskbar and QNX-style sidebar, the whole thing looks like QNX's Photon) that probably uses even less memory (ie. less running fvwm modules).
- fusiongyro 14y agoI loved fvwm. A pain to configure, but you could make it do pretty much anything. I had integrated xmobar with mine and essentially copied over the keybindings from xmonad. Not pretty or user friendly but it worked for me for a long time. Now I'm using KDE, not because it's better especially but because it got me to stop tinkering with my window manager. :) You have to admit it's pretty cool what you can do though. I had a dynamic menu generated off the current slashdot headlines too.
- zem 14y agoi used it for a bit back in the 90s. i used to tell people it stood for "fucking versatile window manager" - if you were willing to spend time on it, you could really configure it.
