This is just so.

Load a "basic system" add the driver for your particular video
card that will bring with it the xorg stuff then try the command:
'startx' I can't see why you wouldn't get a black screen with a terminal
emulator to begin enjoying the privileges of simplicity.

Try a clean window manager like 'blackbox' If you're like me and are still looking
for the 'slit', add 'fluxbox' by way of some variety and advantage.
 
For the Internet there's 'dillo' the super fast web browser that on a
powerful AMD64 machine should be called the dillo-rocket.

I always liked 'ude' that included 'uwm' the UNIX window manager. That black
screen in the uwm was like Galadriel's mirror. Ude is still around but requires
compiling and comes with a lot of promises for future development that do not appear
forthcoming.

Gnome is such a drag, it has always been a drag.
