As above - just interested to know. :)
GNOME users should select both GNOME and their window manager (e.g. GNOME and Sawfish) - the same applies for KDE users if they don't use the KDE window manager.
Apologies to any xfce, metacity, waimea... etc users. There aren't enough options!
Blackbox is my favorite, and KDE is ok too but only the older versions such as 2.1.1 that comes with Redhat7.1 and Slackware8
i did a custom install with Redhat7.3 that worked out pretty good, i installed Redhat7.3 with no KDE and no gnome (only twm) then i took the KDE-2.1.1 & qt packages out of Redhat7.1 and installed them worked pretty good...
i ordered Slackware8.1 and i am going to give Slackware's build of KDE a spin, if i don't like it i will do the same with it as i did Redhat...

Only been using flux a little while, but I'm definitely hooked. I've used blackbox some minor amount, and I liked it too, but not as much. When Gnome 2.0 makes it into Debian sid, then maybe I'll give it a try, but I've used pretty much all the other WM's, and can't stand them. And the longer I use flux/black, the less I can stand going back to KDE, just doesn't seem as nice anymore. :)
