To get away from crappy politics, I thought I'd start a thread for my own curiosity. One of the big selling points of Free Software OSs like Linux for me, is choice of Graphical Environment. Being able to custom my environment the way *I* envisage it should be, as opposed to someone elses vision is probably more important for me than the GPL licence itself. So, what Desktop Environment/Window Manager do you use, and why? Also, what do you think your choice of environment has to offer that isn't found, or rarely found in others? I myself use FVWM and have so for years now. Previously I was a KDE person, then before that GNOME, but FVWM is light and highly customisable. It is more like a framework you can build your own environment out of, and there is not much it can't do, as long as you are willing to dive into learning how to configure it. I've used other Window Managers, but haven't seen one that is as flexible as FVWM. FVWM to me represents the ideal philosophy. That is, have no preconcieved ideas of what the user needs or wants to do, present a sane default (the default set up used to be crap in the past), and all the information they need.

Fluxbox.
- Human-readable files for all of the configuration
- Menu file(s)
- Keyboard mapping files, including window movement, resizing, macros
chords . . .
- Toggling window decoration
- Detachable menus that stay in place
- Pseudo transparency (though I use picom/compton now)
- . . .
Minimizes the need for the mouse. Keystroke navigation in menus is great, no
need for accelerator keys.
Sometimes I'll set up Xfce to work roughly the same, but always come back
to fluxbox.

Our problems are so serious that the best way to talk about them is
lightheartedly.

I began to use fluxbox when I had the very first really fast and (for once) modern machine. Installing stuf that will eat up all the advantages was not my priority and I chose fluxbox, because you can virtually forget that it is there.

Just keep working unobtrusively. I tried to use Plasma a year ago, finally I had to abandon it and return to XFCE. I had trouble with localization. -- Cheers, Carlos.

"Somewhat" in that it began (many years ago) as the default, and it has diverged since then as I've added tweaks along the way. Started out with Twm (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twm), moved to Fvwm (when it was just Fvwm) at some point when it offered something that Twm didn't (I forget what the "offering" was now). Then moved to Fvwm2 when it replaced the original. > Also, what do you think your choice of environment has to offer that > isn't found, or rarely found in others? Infinite customizations. One very useful tweak I made a number of years ago was to change the right mouse click on the title bar to be an Fvwm2 "RaiseLower" operation. The result is it gives the missing opposite function to the usual "click to raise" a window in that it is also "click to push down" a window. So what ever is on top, I can "push it down in the stack" to then see what is underneath. Another useful tweak has been to "force correct behavior" on badly behaved programs. There have been the occasional program (OpenOffice was one) that thought themselves too self important and did a "Raise" on themselves anytime the mouse passed over their windows. As I have Fvwm2 set to focus-follows-mouse without any raise, this miss-behavior was very bad. So a few Fvwm2 config tweaks later and I took away those programs ability to "self-raise" themselves. At which point they became properly well behaved.

You don't know how many times I've missed the ability to "push" a window down below others while using the $work winblows computer. Only being able to "raise" (which is the only half of the pair winblows provides) is a true PIA much of the time.

I'll have a look see if Windows can be cajoled into doing this. With Windows, I can minimise it, then maximise later, but pushing seems more direct. I don't like having to "Alt-Tab" smaller windows away from the front of larger windows I want to expose.

If you find a way, please report the magic. I'll see if $work has locked out the change or not on their system.

Good ideas you see elsewhere, you can implement without > having to move out. I've found it to be a very useful addition to the "window controls" after I added it (a goodly number of years ago now). Yes, a vast majority of "options" can be configured in by proper use of the existing primitives. Fvwm2 is somewhat like the Unix CLI text tool set. A lot of very useful individual tools that can also be combined in unique ways to achieve an end goal.

I have a homemade "Session Manager" written in Tcl/Tk, I use a panel from XFCE4 (without a "start" menu), and FVWM2 in MWM mode. This (more or less) gives me what I had on VAXStations and DECStations under VMS and Ultrix w/ DECWindows way back when. I *never* used MS-Windows or MacOSX and I have no use for a "desktop" that mimics either. I learned on UNIX workstations back in the "early" days and moved onto Linux from there. None of the "modern" (so-called) desktop environments appeal to me and I find them hard to use. I'd just as soon stick with what I know and feel confortable with. I find graphical file managers very hard to use -- generally "clunky".

Current, shiny, and configurable. I tried KDE briefly. It is beautiful, but too heavyweight for me. One of my xterm windows kept spitting out messages from the myriad processes KDE had running in the background, which felt somewhere between clunky and spooky depending on my mood. So it was back to good old Xfce. I did try Blackbox for a while, but it was a bit _too_ minimalistic for my taste. During my distro-sampling days I used Ubuntu/Gnome for a while, but release 10, with its switch to Unity, went somewhere that I really didn't want to go. Again, back to Xfce. -- /~\ Charlie Gibbs | Growth for the sake of \ / <cgibbs@kltpzyxm.invalid> | growth is the ideology X I'm really at ac.dekanfrus | of the cancer cell. / \ if you read it the right way. | -- Edward Abbey

I feel like I should elaborate. I like, for example, transparent windows, because I can kind of work even when not everything I am working with is fully visible. For example, this morning, I wanted to cut something from an only partially visible window. Thanks to the transparency of the window laying higher, I was able to make the correct cut. And I find it very helpful that I get a popup whenever I have an URL in the selection since I often would paste that URL in the browser next. I like konsole with tabs. I like the quick start applet in my panel. I am not too fond of all those programs like kdepim that come with the desktop. I used Kmail for my e-mail 20 years ago but eventually gave up on that.

Depends upon screen size.
For laptop screens, cwm (BSD) or fluxbox (Linux)
For external screens fvwm or vtwm, depending on my mood
I really do not like any of the Desktop Environments,
if I had to use one it would be XFCE.
