This is a question that is often asked in #fluxbox. This is pretty simple.

You need to edit your .xinitrc file. You can do this in one command by running:

 echo "exec startfluxbox" > ~/.xinitrc

some people use a more formal approach and will open a text editor and make a file that looks like this one:

 #!/bin/sh
 exec `which startfluxbox`

Which ever method you use as long as startfluxbox is in your $PATH then it should work just fine.
