Default Fluxbox.....how to?
Hi

Ok so I am trying out pc-bsd and have ports install and figured out how to install ports, and then installing application from ports. Now I was wondering if there is a how to on installing and setting up flux box, I have installed the fluxbox, and anything flux* from ports, however I only get flwm in the session options after installing flwm. But all I have is the pc-bsd wp, and a right click menu that less then helpful as it only has xterm in the menu. I know the server disc does install fluxbox automagically......however I imagine there is a way to set it up in the regular desktop version right??

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have used the search, yeah I know I posted this under general support, under hardware, I know its not quite hardware, but there isnt a generic support section, I thought it would be alright to post here since there are a couple of other software related posts.
..... anyways thanks for the help, gonna continue googling...

So your question seems to be about the fluxbox menu once it's started, correct?

There's lot of things you can do with it--I have a little, albeit dated page on it at http://home.nyc.rr.com/computertaijutsu/fluxbox.html

It gives possible key shortcuts, etc. For instance, in my fluxbox session, I can open xterms, browsers, move windows around, etc etc all without touching the mouse.
