icewm in pclos


I've been testing out the features of pclinuxos with the "big update" and I've been thinking about an icewm remaster. It's exceptionally lightweight and I've ironed out a few bugs, such as setting the dpi correctly for my monitor and customizing the panel a bit. Here's a pic of it so far.

Hi muaythaimaster:
Just ran across your post. I'd be interested in learning about the bugs you quashed. Mostly I run Puppy Linux, but recently while traveling I had the foresight to also install PCLinuxos Lxde on my Thinkpad R51. When Puppy wasn't able to access the web, PClinuxos was. So I've begun spending some time with it. I especially like synaptic. But I miss icewm, with its ability to create a taskbar toolbar just containing my most used apps. Consequently, I'd be interested in knowing what problems you ran into and how you solved them.
Thanks,
Mike Kessler
