@AA BB,
When MXFB first came out I spent some time with it and was able to modify it to get the initial memory well under 200MB. Of course, that was never the goal of the MX developers. But it does show the possibilities. And I toyed with the idea of creating an MXPF spin. But I decided against it since it was pretty easy to just make a few modifications and get the memory use under control. Not as efficient as antiX, but I can say I have comfortably run MXFB on an old P-III in 512M RAM. And more comfortably on a P4HT with 3GB RAM.
I’ll have to spend some time with Fluxbox on antiX. To date I have mainly been using IceWM, but I don’t make many modifications generally. It runs great the way it comes OOTB!
Thanks for sharing your experience with FB on antiX.
