For a wm I'd suggest fluxbox or windowmaker. For WWW links-ssl (console) or dillo for X. For irc I use irssi and for icq/jabber/msn, centericq. Both are console-based & thus good for old hardware. For e-mail I use mutt (w/ abook for an addressbook) even on my desktop boxes, lightweight & *really* powerful. For an X-based client you should stick to sylpheed. -- Manolis Tzanidakis (mtzanidakis-at-freemail-dot-gr) Jabber: mtzanidakis@jabber.org ICQ: 102798230 GnuPG Key Fingerprint: 5CA5 41D6 09F1 C4B9 C331 65EF 4B3F 6979 EB8C 88F3 Get my public key at: pgp.mit.edu
