[PLUG] Lightweight X Graphic Viewers?

For years I used xv as a quick-loading graphic viewer. I know it does
more, but that's how I used it. However, it's not included in the Slackware
distribution and I'm having fits trying to compile it from source. I wrote
to the author, but the site's not been updated since 2000-2001 (except for
the basset hound pages).
Are there alternatives that folks like? I use it just to check the odd
icon or other graphic file and to view images attached to e-mail messages.
The GIMP is quite large and takes too long to load for a quick look at an
image when no manipulation is to be done.
TIA,
Rich
