   Ah. That's probably because the debian repository deals with stable software,    
   while other repositories are usually either forks of that software, or stuff    
   still in alpha stages, IIRC.

   Apparantly, I did. In that case:   
      
   sudo apt-get install xdm   
      
   After that, edit /etc/rc.conf and change the variable XSESSION to:   
      
   XSESSION="fluxbox"   
      
   Then reboot. This should log you into fluxbox the next time you reboot.   
      
   Another way would be to create a .xsession file in the home directory of the    
   user you want it to boot into Fluxbox for. In that file, put:   
      
   exec startfluxbox   
      
   Then reboot and it should load up. At least that's what I got out of the XDM    
   sections at:   
      
     https://wiki.debian.org/FluxBox#XDM   
     http://fluxbox-wiki.org/index.php?title=XDM   
      
   Hopefully one of those methods work for you. :)   
      
   Regards,
