fvwm2 on RH9. I used the RH73 package for it! Why? Because it's
EXTREMELY lightweight and doesn't require any of the GNOME/KDE libraries
to soak up cpu/memory...
My advice? Stick with a tried and tested OLD window manager for your
Myth box. They're established, seasoned, stable, and designed to run on
much slower machines (with less RAM). Thus, on your hotrod myth box,
they'll scream... ;)
