Anyway, I think I may merge ICEWM and XFCE and put out one install which gives you both, but I am still playing. It would save me some time from recompiling xterm bash and many other tools.
tools can be added later or can be "stolen" from other WM.
the big selling point of ICEWM is the "Fit to flash" feature. No need to mess with MMC boot and initfs.

there's no "other WMs on the ITs" section; it was a suggestion.
we are at a point were we need to have a dedicated section for alternative Windows Managers. may be rename the KDE section so it can include your upcoming XFCE, the current ICEWM and KDE.
edit : or create a section "PenguinBait's stuff" LOL

Let's also include the OpenBox window manager which has been available from the DebFarm repository (info here) for some time now. I've been wanting to try it but don't know anything about it so would welcome some discussion of that option as well.

With regard to the logout, I too had the problem of it hanging. I edited /usr/bin/icemaemo and take the backgrounding off of /usr/bin/icewm-session and put /usr/local/bin/startmaemo at the end of the file, so it looks like this :
export PATH="/usr/bin:/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin"
/usr/bin/icewm-session
/usr/local/bin/startmaemo
I'm not 100% sure this is the proper solution, but it does fix the problem for me.

BUT if you don't have the usb keyboard, maybe you can edit the file from maemo using the nano editor in xterm.
the file to edit for menu links is /home/user/.icewm/menu
it's easy to add even for a linux newbie like me.
