I'm trying to take a screenshot, but when I choose "Screenshot JPG" from the fluxbox menu, then select the whole area on the screen, it creates a scaled copy of the image. How can I get the full 1280x1024?

Aha! I've found "scrot", screenshot on the way!

Scrot is a great utility and it pretty much has the same requirements as Feh, so I always install both on my Arch boxen.

The print screen button on my box uses scrot. Screen shots have never been more fun or easy.

This background image is very cool. The more I look at it, the more I like it. It feels like King Crimson music to me. Is this your work?

Thanks it's not my work. I can send it to you if you'd like. Meanwhile I have another shot:

Can I have a look at your .xinitrc?

How did you move the menu bar of the applications to the top of the screen?

That was the easy part.

kcontrol -> Desktop -> Behavior -> General -> Tick Current Application's menu bar

Now the fun part is getting everything into that bar. You have to go into ~/.kde/share/config and copy what's in your kickerrc into kickerrc_menubarpanelrc and adjust it so everything arranges correctly. Once you do, you can hide the real kicker (mine's in the bottom-left corner, I use it just as a global taskbar) whereever.

Here's what my kickerrc_menubarpanelrc looks like:

[Applet_1]
ConfigFile=menu_panelappletrc
DesktopFile=menuapplet.desktop
FreeSpace2=0
WidthForHeightHint=485

[Applet_3]
ConfigFile=systemtray_panelappletrc
DesktopFile=systemtrayapplet.desktop
FreeSpace2=1
WidthForHeightHint=54

[Applet_4]
ConfigFile=clock_panelapplet_r7hjmyvnrpz14c4gmb7o_rc
DesktopFile=clockapplet.desktop
FreeSpace2=1
WidthForHeightHint=133

[General]
Applets2=KMenuButton_1,Applet_1,Applet_3,Applet_4
CustomSize=23
IExist=true
Position=2
Size=4
XineramaScreen=-2

[KMenuButton_1]
FreeSpace2=0

Here you go. It's not much to look at though:

if [ -f $sysresources ]; then
    xrdb -merge $sysresources
fi

if [ -f $sysmodmap ]; then
    xmodmap $sysmodmap

if [ -f $userresources ]; then
    xrdb -merge $userresources
fi

if [ -f $usermodmap ]; then
    xmodmap $usermodmap

Whoa! That looks great!

Mind sharing your theme & wallpaper?

not so much. it is as fast as openbox and very configurable. i think it is better to theme... but try it! pekwm

bionnaki · 2008-01-08 22:29:35

I think pekmw is my next wm to play around with, for sure.

What monitor and resolution do you use ?? just curious since i want to buy a new one (pc)

barry · 2008-01-08 22:45:57

Switched to Xmonad a couple of days ago, it's pretty impressive Have been copy and pasting code from various configs all over the place so it's not exactly original.

update: links removed

Since I've discovered the beauty of text-only browsing, I have happily settled with Ratpoison and GNU Screen.
I have just created a little stupid configuration to show the current song in ratmen.

Not much to see, apart from that

I like it. Everytime I see a shot like your's, it makes me want to learn more about Screen and configuring it.

screen is great.
I run rtorrent, irssi, moc, elinks, and raggle with screen. I'd like to get an email client that can use gmail setup. mutt looks a bit of work to get going, so im waiting until I have a few hours to devote to that.
