jwm or icewm?

So, puppeee linux has brought my asus eeepc back to life and on a netbook at least is a dream to use!

I was thinking that I'd like to make my dell vostro run on a lighter interface. The two that have taken my interest were iceWM and JWM. What are the differences and how would it compare to say a desktop enviroment like XFCE or LXDE?

Re: jwm or icewm?

homeblend,
you really have to answer this yourself first. Just do a bit of research: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Fo … troduction

Search the forums, this has been discussed a lot. And look up the wiki. A good starting point is: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Ca … _(English).
Feel free to open a new thread if there are specific questions left.

Closing.
