Re: March 2010 Screenshots

Wow! I was going to give Xmonad a try but it wants to pull in 110MB of stuff to do it. That's bigger than Chromium was.

Try i3 (its in aur).  Its really light on deps and very easy to configure.  See my shot above

I'm just going to go for it. I forgot that this is a test install anyway.

Only coz of GHC; as far as I know - after you have set up Xmonad, you can remove GHC.

but when you do "xmonad --recompile", after you have changed the config doesn't ghc is needed for recompilation?

You kinda answered that question yourself. Let me be more specific:
After you have set up XMonad and compiled the config to your liking, you can remove GHC. Of course this entails having to reinstall GHC if you ever want to change the configuration.

Re: March 2010 Screenshots

^ got it. but imo it's not feasible,
because i am not using xmonad now but when i was, i used to tweak it a bit everyday.

neways it everyone's personal matter of choice.

Re: March 2010 Screenshots

Hi all...

Is there someone who knows how to get ncmpc++ using a zenburn-like theme? and the terminator terminal? I know how to change the colors in both, but i don't know what is the palette...

These are my configs:

ncmcp++: http://nanotube09.pastebin.com/j3jW4urY
terminator (I have yet got something similar): http://nanotube09.pastebin.com/uSeKrCBA

Thank you

Very nice looking. But doesn't tint2 not play nice with Viewports? Isn't that annoying?

Tint shows all the windows from current desktop (that's 4 viewports in compiz for me), and I got used to it. I think there are very few panels, that support showing only windows from current viewport. Maybe xfce4-panel, gnome-panel, but others like bmpanel, pypanel (not sure about fbpanel) are able to show only windows on per desktop bases.
Other than that, tint2 workes fine for me. Clicking on a window in taskbar from other viewport automatically switches to that viewport, what else do you need?

I created that in like 5 seconds with gimp. Here are the originals:

I understand. I am also using Compiz Standalone and I love Tint2 because it's the only panel that works well vertically for me, but I need it to honor viewports or I'll go crazy. Like you said, that limits me to Xfce4-panel or Gnome-panel and there ain't no way I'm installing half of Gnome just for a panel...

I tried going panel-less, but that sucked too. Woe is me.

Edit: Time for my shot:

Compiz Standalone, Xfce4-panel, Firefox with the HideGuiBars addon, myGtkMenu. Ask for other details.

May I ask, what is used to output that info in the terminal?

Re: March 2010 Screenshots

Not much is new.  I'm moving away from KDE, one app at a time.  I now use Mutt for mail (not pictured here) because I can't stand Akonadi.  My goal is to relieve my system from it by the summer.

http://jwcxz.com/pictures/desktop/10-03 … shot_t.png

O-o Odd, I just moved away from KDE right now after installing gnome-control-center so I can tweak the color scheme to my liking:

I still wish that the control center didn't need metacity...(for some reason, gnome-color-chooser doesn't work that well w/o gnome-control center)

How'd you get pacman to use dashes (-) instead of crunches (#) for the progressbars?
