-Gentoo provides an ebuild to quickly and easily install Fluxbox. While Gentoo -provides the gnome and kde USE flags to give compatibility with -these environments, it has been the author's experience that these USE flags are -not needed. If you desire qt, gtk+, or any KDE/GNOME utility then you are free -to emerge and configure those independently. For example, the author uses -Fluxbox with k3b, the KDE optical disc burning utility. +Before you install Fluxbox, you should take a look at some of the available USE +flags.

+While the gnome and kde USE flags are provided to give +compatibility with these environments, it has been the author's experience that +these USE flags are not needed. If you desire qt, gtk+, or any KDE/GNOME utility +then you are free to emerge and configure those independently. The gnome +and kde flags simply add support for the respective protocols, and do not +depend on external libraries. However, they do increase the Fluxbox binary +size. +

+There is also a vim-syntax flag to make configuration easier later on. +This flag will install fluxbox-syntax, a special Fluxbox color scheme for +vim. This enables users to more readily see the contents of their keys +and init files for Fluxbox. It's a tiny extension for vim, so it's highly +recommended. +

+ +

+Finally, there are two flags that customize the functionality of Fluxbox, +slit and toolbar. These flags are provided so that users who don't +need the slit +or the toolbar can compile +Fluxbox without them. This is useful if you want to run an extremely minimal +environment, or if you plan to use different applications that provide these +features, such as standalone panels or docks. +

+Once you've decided on your USE flags, add them to +/etc/portage/package.use: +

+# echo "x11-wm/fluxbox -gnome -kde truetype vim-syntax" >> /etc/portage/package.use

This is a quite small extension for vim, so it is highly recommended -(unless of course you are one of those emacs people, in which case I recommend -emerge -C emacs && emerge gvim ;-). -
