   Thinking of !Mandriva, !Fedora, #CentOS, #MEPIS or !Slax... not as hard as Arch. But must go well with !Openbox.

     @chriswaterguy Try #Salix OS! Works well with #openbox and #tint2 and is a clean distribution.

     @thenktor So I download the regular !Salix CD ISO (no LiveCD?) then choose core install, then install Openbox? Thanks!

     @thenktor Is there a list of packages included in core? Here's what I'm aiming for: http://j.mp/6VxiaI would be great to have !Salix listed

     @chriswaterguy Better use the basic install mode and remove xfce afterwards: http://pastebin.com/KEQnTKZ0

     @thenktor Thanks. What would be the equivalent of "apt-get install openbox obconf obmenu tint2 conky dwm-tools" on !Salix?

     @thenktor Oops, I see it now. "slapt-get -i openbox obconf tint2 gmrun lxappearance" What does "slapt-get -u" do?

     @chriswaterguy slapt-get -u retrieves pkg data from the repo mirrors.
