I just installed fluxbox and I have to say that I really like it. It runs much smoother than KDE or Gnome on my P-133 desktop. Now I need to ask a stupid question: How do I install dockapps? I downloaded a dockapp called allin1 and I unzipped and untarred it and ran make. In the install instructions this said that it would create an executeable file called allin1. Well, there is a file with that name now, but when I type "allin1" or "exec allin1" it says command not found. I looked around on the boards and tried google, but I can't figure out how to do this. Also, how can I get this to run automatically when starting fluxbox?

where is the app located? If it's in /usr/local/allin1/allin1, but it didn't create links in /usr/bin, then you need to specify entire path...such as /usr/local/allin1/allin1. Of course, replace this with wherever the file actually is. Also check your permissions, that it isn't owned by root with only root permission.
Ok thanks. Actually it won't let me run it as root, only as myself. When I try to run it as root it can't find it. But if I type exit and then "allin1", it runs ok. How can I make it so that root can run it too? Also, how can I start it when I start fluxbox?

Edit/create a .xinitrc file in your home directory. Use that to change your manager, and start up programs:
#.xinitrc
allin1 &
wmCalClock &
exec fluxbox
