Well this should work on 2007, I have not tested it on the lastest firmwares, and it definetly wont work on 2008OS. I would go with KDE, its a much better environment.

The other thing is python is only required to run openbox/ROX it should not effect boot, unless you set it to boot to openbox prior to installing python, and then still it should boot? This is probably left better unused at this point, KDE3.5.8 with Koffice is available, send me a PM if you want to try it. (it gives you KDE, printing, kmail, all of koffice)
