Sorry for my dumb question and thanks in advance. you can ftp the packages for FVWM or OLVWM FVMW: Fvwm is a just another window manager for X11, which provides a simple virtual desktop, a 3-D look for windows decorations, and shaped, color icons. It can be configured to use far less memory than twm, or to give a very good emulation of mwm. A nice button-bar can be used to provide convenient access to frequently used functions or programs. OLVWM: Olvwm (OPEN LOOK virtual window manager) is an ICCCM compliant window manager supplied for use with the XView toolkit. It is derived from olwm, the OPEN LOOK window manager supplied with the XView release. This version of olvwm is based on version 3 of the XView release. enjoy! Jonathan M.
