Ended up with Wuxbuntu instead of Chicken Wings, why??? More stuff to click on here :D
Well seriously I really really like it, so much that I ditched Sidbang on my old crappy lappy. Got it on my desktop, no worry. So thank you very much for this one, I would never have thought about IceWM if it had not been for you and the very cool name you gave it. You see...there is hope for the wicked :D

Glad to hear that someone uses it :) It sit nicely between naked X and bloated gtk, and installing gtk stuff doesn't make it wanna explode. I guess it is an OK system for old laptops, old desktops, and old users (those who are used to the WinXP feel). I highly recommend to check gtk-look for some nice IceWM themes.

Just gave it a try from a live session. Man, it's been a while since I've seen THOSE colors!
Light and smooth.

Just installed it again, still quite happy with it.

It is just nice and simple, and it works too
