I see a lot of very nice openbox desktops here...
I have a very slow old laptop so I'm gonna give it a try. :-) Some tips anyone? Don't know how easy it is to configure. Currently using KDE on my pc. :-)

→ XFCE 4.4
→ Theme: Aurora Blue Flux (changed panel, menu)
→ Xfwm4: Aurora Blue Flux (port from Emerald)
→ Icons: Micro, Kobhens Linux White
→ Wallpaper: Graphite (You can find it here)

looks really sweet , trying to get that same look but having a few issues,

- how do you get simdock to look like that? all i get are images, and transparancy doesn't seem to work correctly yet either, just a blue background
- also, how did you change your panel color/background? you mentioned something about including panel.rc in your .gtkrc but i don't quite get how you did that

arialis111 · 2007-12-28 18:41:36

@vanes, SimDock is very strange app. For firt to get rid of blue background you have to put the same image as for your wallpaper here /usr/share/pixmaps/backgrounds/gnome/background-default.jpg. For panel you need add to gtkrc line:

include "Panel/panel.rc"

then copy some folder called Panel from some other theme and make sure it contains panel.rc file. Than if you want change pixmaps from Panel folder.

*** You need to edit a gtkrc file from theme not this one that is in home directory.

xmonad with some vibrant colours
3x dzen (pipe for xmonad, clock and stats in bottom bar)
GTK Theme: DarkGilouche variant (wip)
GTK Icons: MonoBlack

Whats the color you use on focused borders, and do you have link to your gtk themes, and wallpaper? your xdefaults would also be nice.

@semperfiguy: is that screen running inside of your terminal in the screenshot? If so, do you mind sharing your ~/.screenrc?

Thanks

semperfiguy · 2007-12-29 03:01:37

Yes it is. and here is my very short bland .screenrc

# Set the caption on the bottom line
caption always "%{= kw}%-w%{= BW}%n %t%{-}%+w %-= @%H - %c"
