these types of components can be used with openbox, if you want.
obconf allows you to set N number of desktops, dock location etc.
the openbox website has a lot of information regarding usage and
configuration ( i.e. i have openbox run 3 desktops and I mapped the
<windows-meta-key>-F1-3 to switch between them -- i also run a taskbar
(tint2) that allows me to do the same as well as have systray)
