Jesus man, why don't you go back in time and install twm and run term
and xclock, yuck!

Really, I found fluxbox unusable and font size was inconstant between
themes.  Makes me remember how awful X started out.

Gnome or even KDE is light-years ahead of fluxbox.  Sure the screen
shots of flux on the web "look" good, but it's not what you think.  Just
another reason to not ditch ctrl+backspace!
