Well, after hearing about it in a thread I decided to give it a try...
After all was installed, the intructions were quite unclear on how to start it up,
maybe someone can clarify the bottom part of the page:
http://www.fluxbox.org/docs/en/newdoc.starting.php#firstrun
I'm aware that not many people use it, but any help would be great.

1) Quit X.
2) With your favorite editor, edit ~/.xinitrc (this file might not exist, so your editing will create it)
3) Type 'exec /usr/local/bin/fluxbox'
4) Save the file
5) startx
