Tiling window managers are the best thing to happen since GNU
screen! Here is my favorite: wmii (window manager improved)
<http://wmii.de>. They just released 3.0, so get it while it's hot! ;-)

Also, I run an Ubuntu minimal/bare installation, with some
additional packages (see attached list). Maybe you'll find something
of interest.

Cheers.
