fluxbox is ok, but if you want something a little more robust, try windowmaker (x11-wm/windowmaker). On systems where I don't install KDE3, I typically use windowmaker. It's probably not as lightweight as fluxbox, but it's great for people who want to get up and running right away without having to manually mess with too many config files.
