I just got this computer set up (mostly... still some awesome to play with)

Clean:

Dirty:

I'm really proud of those rings; They fade as my battery dies.

Have a PKGBUILD or a log of that? I tried it some time ago unsuccessfully.

I cheated. I downloaded the deb from Debian and used dpkg-deb -x to extract the contents (dpkg is in AUR). I then did the same to the necessary xview libraries. I moved olvwm to /usr/bin and the needed libraries to /usr/lib. It was actually pretty easy and it works great.

If you are at all interested I can share the debs I made years ago of some of the desktop tools I used and how to get everything to you see on my screen to work.

Ok, I guess I can do that myself. Thanks.

I always come back to Openbox.

You should probably stick stuff like that (i.e. anything not managed by pacman that wouldn't otherwise go in /opt) into /usr/local/{bin,lib}. That's why it's there, after all (and why a lot of programs build targeting there by default for those doing .configure && make && make install etc.)

Hey, what are you using to display the calendar info like that?

Good idea!

After hours of playing around with Windows 7, partitioning, mobile broadband networking, installing, and Radeon graphics cards, I've finally got a basic desktop on my new laptop. *huge sense of achievement*

It looks ugly, but I'll configure it properly tomorrow. There's almost nothing installed, except for Openbox, urxvt, and luakit.

gcalcli from the AUR, and I use execpi in conky. I.e.

{execpi 300 gcalcli --nc --user "foo" --pw "bar" agenda `date +%T` `date --date="next week" +%D`}

AFAIK, you need that nc flag... color input freaks out conky.

You can definitely use a less frequent update schedule (5 minutes for a calendar is... short.)
Also, it may be better not to put your user name and password into a conkyrc.

i3-wm, custom colorscheme based on molokai.

That's a spiffy color scheme.

Finally finished porting my GTK2 theme to GTK3!

Haven't done this in a while. Not a whole bunch of customization, but I'm tweaking it here and there after a complete reinstall last month.

Openbox clean:

Openbox dirty:

BTW, this http://minus.com is a pretty sweet site for quickly sharing images.

what is your openbox theme??

earsplit · 2012-09-22 17:19:49

Ported gutterslob's Thaw colorscheme into Xmonad. Just installed this on my thinkpad x230. Feels good to be back on Arch. Note the 8-10hr battery life

alephomega · 2012-09-23 00:33:34

earsplit, that's pretty... I think I'll keep that color scheme in mind when I play with xmonad again.

How'd you make your Sublime Text 2 look like that?
