That may be a problem with fluxbox dependencies; however, how about |

This is true. I'm looking for a little help getting it running though. Installing fluxbox doesn't add the x window manager etc...

I think that RHEL6, and hence, CentOS, might have matchbox as a minimalist WM.
Fluxbox is available from the EPEL repos---you can enable them (see the wiki), and install it that way. |

I always install CentOS as a "minimal server".
What is a good way to get an lightweight window manager such as fluxbox to operate on top of that? I just need a lightweight window system that VNC can connect to and keep some terminals running... I'd appreciate any input or ideas. Thanks guys. Aaron |
