i run the Awesome window manager on Arch Linux.
Awesome is a tiling window manager. its controlled mostly with the keyboard. i have very little need for a mouse.

i have a popup calendar on the bottom right when i mouse over the clock:


here is firefox with the Vimperator extention to give me keyboard navigation in the style of the Vim text editor.
top right is ncmpc playing the SLC Punk soundtrack.
bottom right is the Awesome window manager configuration file. its basically a giant Lua script.

Wow! That looks pretty cool, do you reckon it'll be in the Ubuntu repos? I like the idea of keyboard control!!!
I've used many small window managers before - Window Maker, Fluxbox, Open Box, AmiWM, etc and loved them, I often prefer small and fast WMs over bloated desktops like KDE & Gnome (I'm using Xubuntu atm because I'm digging Xfce atm, and only have 470MB RAM on this box!)

it should be in the repos. cant imagine it wouldnt be.

i used openbox for a long time and just got bored. wanted to try something different.. enter Awesome.

its really tough trying to back to normal window managers now. im just so used to hitting a key combo and being ready to go. its soo much faster to get stuff done now.

it can be a pain in the ass to set up but you have pretty much limitless flexibility once you get it.

EDIT: make sure you know what version youre installing. Awesome changes the syntax of the config with every version they have. some code for 3.3 wont work for 3.4. and the 2.x branch is totally different.

I like Xubuntu pretty well. I used to have a debian + OpenBox install which was great, but too much hassle to customize. Now I just use Kubuntu. My system has enough specs to spare some for a heavier interface.

how is kde4 coming along?  I used it right when it came out, and messed with kde4.1 a little, but i felt it just was NOT good at all, and a lot of times, had problems with plasma always crashing...it left such a bad taste that i left it behind, though i loved kde3.5, it was great.

peace

i didnt like 3.5 at all but im really digging 4.x. i keep it installed just so i can check its progress from time to time. 4.2 has come a loong way from 4.0.

i believe in 4.3 they are adding a tiling option to the window management. when thats released i think i might switch for a little while just to see how i like it. those guys are doing a great job.

easy

user: void
host: null

you would just have to setup your username as void, then the hostname as null, and that woudl be your standard command line when you log into that user...

im pretty sure you can setup the bash prompt to say whatever you want it to say. i think for most distros you define what you want in /etc/bashrc. in Arch its /etc/bash.bashrc

as others have said, my bash prompt is $user@$host
null is my hostname (sudo hostname null && echo null | sudo tee /etc/hostname)
and my user name is void

but you can just export PS1="whatever" to set it to read anything you want

just put the export line into ~/.bashrc to have it set to that with every new terminal

e.g. for a windows cmd.exe looking prompt:

export PS1='C:\Documents and Settings\\Administrator>'
