@zodmaner, venox, Ashren, strankan, Gigamo, mascanho, ep5il0n

Thx!

You can find my configs here: ftp://sen.homelinux.org/config/

The awesome config is based on Calmar's Awesome Setup but I tweaked it a lot and added new features.

Setup
1. put the 'awesome-status' and 'awesome-status.awk' to /usr/local/bin (or change paths in the scripts) and make them executable
2. look through the commented 'awesome-status.awk' script, you'll want to change some things
3. copy the panel settings from my awesomerc (line 52-329) to yours
4. change the image paths, amixer channel etc
5. the 'start' script is like the .xinitrc, so if you don't use a login-manager just cp the parts you want to your .xinitrc. If you use gdm for example, cp the 'start' script to /usr/bin, make it executable, edit the '/etc/X11/sessions/awesome.desktop' like this >>> Exec=/usr/bin/start

However the awesome-status.awk isn't finished yet. The MPD part need some enhancements (display nothing when stopped) and I want to add a weather function.

Looks like sen has the best desktop of this year so far. Haven't seen one this popular in my time here Kudos!

could it be possible to provide the icons also?

Sure but I should mention that the only icons I created myself are the ones for mpd... the rest is collected from va icon themes.

ftp://sen.homelinux.org/config/awesome/ … ons.tar.gz

If you don't want to change the paths in the awesomerc, extract the archive in ~/.icons/. Then use your favorite text-editor that has a replace function (like gvim) and replace 'sen' with your user name for the entire document.

Im having some problems extracting just the Volume progressbar from your configs (my volume is changed to Front instead of Wave already, that's not the issue). I have tried reducing the .awk file to only include the volume bits, or execute only `amixer sget Front |grep 'Left: Playback'`, but no success. I mean the progressbar is there, but it is not filled and there is no interaction.

Thanks.

Well, my feb 08 screenshot

Thanks.

try this script:

#!/bin/sh
while true
do
VOL=`amixer sget Wave |grep 'Left: Playback' | awk '{ print $4 }'`
echo "0 widget_tell pb_vol $VOL"
sleep 1
done

Agree with this. 2.1 was a major improvement and surprise. 2.2 looks promising too

Sen: No luck.

Here's what I put into my startup script:

sh /home/gig/volume.sh | /usr/local/bin/awesome-client &

print $4 prints the word "Playback" here btw. $6 prints the percentage like this: [42%], and I have tried putting that in the script, sadly not working either.

What I also tried is change the script this way:

#!/bin/sh
while true
do
VOL=`amixer sget Front |grep 'Left: Playback' | awk '{ print $6 }'`
echo 0 widget_tell pb_vol "$VOL" | /usr/local/bin/awesome-client
sleep 1
done

Since this is how all my other info is piped to the widgets. (with the | /usr/local/bin/awesome-client behind it)

Any suggestions?

Thanks already though

The new features are great!

May I ask you where to obtain your wallpaper? Been googl'ing, but without any luck at all. Thanks And very nice desktop.

The components:
Xfce 4.4
gtk2 theme: Murrina-Black
xfwm: GSM
icons: Final Order
font: Annivers
and the wallpaper I snagged from 4chan/wg/. You can get the Annivers font by browsing Smashing Magazine, it's somewhere in there, and it's completely free. I stick to a very minimal setup usually, and that may get even more drastic (see the xmonad man tab in vimperator?). I'm also noticing that my panel is very windows-y, but it works for me and saves more screen space than a dual bar setup would. I long for the summer when I hope to setup Xinerama with two 22" screens.

Could you post Murrina-Black theme I can't find anywhere

Gigamo · 2008-02-15 23:07:39

Not going to quote myself, but I got it working, thanks Sen .

Though is it normal that the bar isnt fully filled even when the volume is on 100%? It fills only like two thirds.

hey!
Nice wallpaper.
Where did you find it?

fwojciec · 2008-02-16 02:11:21

Everything should be pretty much self-explanatory, methinks... I'm particularly happy with the way conky came out this time around -- I doesn't draw attention to itself at all (you kinda have to imagine the black plastic of the monitor casing next to it...) but it's there if I need the infos.

Hello fwojciec, are you using some patch for the font ? Your fonts are very very beautiful! If yes, Can you say me what patch are you using, and how i can install them? Thanks You!
