GNU / Linux October 2013 Desktops


Recommended Posts

What Desktop environment are you using?

 

If you are interested in using the Crunchbang Openbox configuration (which is one of the best IMHO) on another distro, take a look at the sources in the Crunchbang repository. In particular, the cb-*.tar.gz and crunchbang-*.tar.gz archives are probably what you're looking for. Each package is fairly obviously named, so you shouldn't have too much trouble picking out the pieces you want.

 

Note: I would only recommend this to advanced users since it is much easier to just use Crunchbang and tweak it to your liking. I think you qualify as advanced.

Can you share your wallpaper?

The original source on DeviantArt seems to be down, at the moment.

If need be, just Google "Zen Wallpaper" and look in the Images section.

anyway you could PM me the icons you used for your launch bar?  They are sweet and I see a few that are not in the standard Token set... =)
