for mimimum install - docking recommendations

Currently I'm running fluxbox from xubuntu 12.04 on my asus EEEpc
with 2 Gb of RAM. I'd like to replace that installation with an
ubuntu 14.04 mimimum install. With fluxbox as wm, of course.
I propose to use wicd for wireless, but don't wish to use glipper as
my clipboard manager, because I want to any gnome dependencies.

I would welcome a recommendation for a clipboard manager that is
more "lean and mean" and works with fluxbox.

The same goes for a battery indicatory. I see three here

any comments?

thanks
