The ideal desktop: FVWM + your killer apps

urxvt + screen

Mostly bash. I also have two dolphins permanently open. One on the root folder of my web server and another in my download folder.

When I am doing some labeling or tiding up my collection, I use amarok for the music. If I am working I usually just launch mplayer -playlist. For video, either mplayer or kaffeine. I also use the kmplayer and xine plugins in konqueror sometimes.

Mostly konqueror. I can’t stand text browsers nowadays, and I can’t stand gecko (though I use seamonkey when konqueror fails).

Mainly feh and imagemagick for viewing and batch processing. When I need some job done I use inkscape or the gimp.

No, thanks. :P But if I need to, I use psi in X or mcabber on console.

Cdrecord and k3b.

Some other usefull things I use everyday are claws-mail, kate and kio-slaves in konqueror for various purposes.
