NO devx.. use the B4 one, it's almost identical.. I have to update the boost libs for abiword.

Devx 105M
kernel sources (95M).. needed (+devx) for 3rd part drivers.. (nvidia, ati, prop wireless etc)

other stuff I forget
I thought I had the shutdown bug.. slipped through.. it seems unmounting isn't finished before poweroff.. please, if you had the bug check drives for integrity. (fsck /dev/whatever-drive be sure it's UNMOUNTED before check. For Windows drives, boot Windows and use chkdsk or whatever it is). As a work around for now unmount drives before poweroff.
Pmusic is looking real nice! Works well for me. Pburn crashes no more. Abiword is actually useful! (Who'd've thought?) I'm still not sold on it though, but if you desperately need to see that docx or odt buried in your crashed windows then it should suffice.
The theme.. you'll either love it or hate it! I think it's co-ordinted, semi-professional and above all fun. . A few clicks and it can be anything you want anyway. There are plently of alternate gtk themes in the common and slacko repos and other jwm themes, and icon themes. We all know we can get wallpapers from anywhere and install with a right click don't we?
OK, have fun
(I'll be away for some days as of tomorrow.. recharge the batteries before the final assault )
