Graphical Environments & Desktops • Windows Manager using less resources than IceWM and IceWM installation

I'd like to build the lightest Linux system I can that is based upon Debian and IceWM or lighter windows manager.

Are there any windows managers lighter than IceWM?

Are there any guides/videos on installing IceWM on base Debian?

I was able to get IceWM running on Debian but have encountered issues. For instance, menu items for shutdown and restart would not work - no error given. Also, the gparted menu option would not start gparted but like shutdown and restart, gparted would run from the cmd line. I was hoping to find a tutorial/video/blog that goes into locating/editing/moving the config files controlling IceWM and whatever config files required to allow elevated permission functions such as reboot/shutdown and gparted/synaptic to run from the IceWM menu.
