Great! I am really digging this... Replaced that Romanticrapist install with this and am stoked. Minimal, while not affording usability for a novice.

Awesome!! Something to fiddle around with tomorrow with my 4 year old. He likes using Openbox and already knows how to use a terminal so me thinks it is time for him to do his first BBQ installation (with some guidance from me, maybe).

More like takes over father's laptop. First thing he installed after doing apt-get update, etc. by himself was supertuxkart and added it to the obmenu.BTW, I think I'm switching from Camel Carcass to this. Nice job, Mr Snuff!!

Good to be back.

Been lurking but been a bit under the weather. Getting older is not fun sometimes.......

This is a great little spin!

I am not much of a openbox fan, but it is setup nice, and the defaults suits me well.
It runs very nice on both my little netbook, and the p4box

I might be a sad person, but the popup when someone writes something in irssi, made me go WHOA! LOL

Many thanks!

The other thing I really like about it, is that the tmux line has actual useful info in it now, and the framebuffer does not have "leftover" text in it any more.

Just a lot of little details, that make it feel nice!
