#!/bin/sh
matchbox-desktop &
zhone &
trayer --edge bottom --height 48 &
openmoko-panel-plugin &
exec matchbox-window-manager -use_titlebar yes -use_cursor no -use_desktop_mode decorated

But matchbox-desktop doesn’t seem to be very stable (i.e. it sometimes
leaves zomie processes or you can not always switch to other apps in the
title bar), not sure if it should be the default. So if you want, please
try it out and comment on it.

Greetings,
Joachim
