I remember several years ago trying to use Squeak (I do not remember the
exact version) as the window manager of LinEx (A Spanish Linux, from
Extremadura government). It worked at a minimun, but still we needed
applications to control the sort of stuf that Ken mention. Anyway, using
OSProcess we were able to launch common Gnome apps.
