Un window manager è un programma che gestisce l'aspetto e la posizione di una finestra nel X Window System, un sistema grafico usato principalmente sotto Unix.
Chi scopre il mondo Linux rimane favorevolmente colpito dal grande numero di window manager a disposizione dell'ambiente grafico X-Windows. E così si cerca di provarli tutti, finendo per avere sull'hard disk decine di mega occupati.
Vediamo quello che si adatta meglio alle nostre esigenze.
In questa seconda puntata dai popolari KDE, Lubuntu e Lxde all'ultima versionedi Oxygen passando per altri windows manager un po' meno conosciuti ma non meno validi come lineakd, moblin, klavaro ed altri comandi e utility.
