Greetings.

I have been using enlightenment for the past three years, but it is becoming a real chore to keep using it.
Its libraries are so out of date it is a real hassle to even compile epplets for it.

Can anyone recomend a good, lightweight window manager that is also elegant and themeable?

I don't need a taskbar or icons, but I don't want something that is too flat either.

Fluxbox is lightweight and great, really customizable, the problem with it, is that the usual fluxbox installation is probably too little for you, so here customization is not a choice, it's a must. And it will take a good deal of time to finish the customization.

XFCE4 doesn't looks too ugly and it's lightweight, try it if you don't like fluxbox.
