  1. This is what I was able to achieve today.
    Still a lot of work to do. Openbox produces some odd inner border. Left, right, bottom, but I still can’t remove it.

    #freebsd #openbox

  2. @nikodunk There was a time in my life where I was excited about such things...but at 53, Im just glad my #archlinux #openbox instance boots and my games play fairly well on my #radeo xtx 7900

  3. What is the terminal that openbox session or log in use in lubuntu 22.04? #2204 #lubuntu #openbox

  4. @regendans Interesting! So Noctalia is a window manager? I hadn't heard about it, but it seems there's quite a lot happening with it. There's no entry for it on the #ArchWiki, surprisingly.

    I've been using #Labwc on my old #Thinkpad as a lightweight #KDE alternative, which is pretty nice too. An #Openbox alternative for #Wayland.

  9. The YouTube channel "I use Devuan btw" has been testing XLibre with the #Nvidia RTX 4060 using CUDA driver 590.48.01. He says, "It works great. OS is #devuan 6 excalibur with #openbox window manger. If your gpu supports version 570+ it'll work." youtube.com/watch?v=gbhtNWhtp1A

    #XLibre #XingsDay

  10. #devuan with #openbox WM, because it gives me imitless customization freedom. Runs without stubborn init systems. And it is very #lightweight.

    /e/OS, because promises an open future for mobile devices.

    #Mint #Xfce, because it is lighweight. User friendly, and "just works". A perfect fit whenever I " just quickly need an OS on any random machine", and don't have the time to solve a gazillion silly compatibility problems myself.

  16. Mabox Linux 25.12 is now available.

    This release removes GTK2, introduces GTK3-based tools, improves the panel, and disables Picom by default for better compatibility on older systems.

  17. Así tengo mi escritorio actualmente.

    Es el gestor de ventanas #openbox , le he quitado el marco superior, se parece a un Tiling Window pero sin serlo.

    Sigo en Debian 12, tengo mucha pereza en subir de versión. Cuando se vaya el calor sofocante que tenemos en España migraré a la versión 13. 🤭

    Uf, hacía meses que no subía un #viernesdeescritorio

    Que tengáis un lindo día de #viernes , ademas hoy es #festivo en España.

  18. @mms On the two #openbsd’s I use #openbox, on #alpinelinux it is the #wayland #openbox cousin #labwc. Except for a clock my desktop is empty as in no icons. Menus a mouse button away. Background color #rebeccapurple

  19. Heavily considering giving a try after has been causing some stability issues lately. I'm not sure if I'm ready to go back to a non-DE setup though (ran and back in the day). Niri sure is tempting though :-)

  20. Day 16 of :freebsd:

    I'm happy with how my Openbox config is coming together! This time around I'm not using any kind of panel/taskbar and have set windows to open maximized by default:

    gitlab.com/dwarmstrong/dotfile

    Next up: further configure `.xinitrc` to run some helper applications at `startx`.

    Onward!

  21. Found an obscure that appears to be unique. That is, makes its own toolchain, which is what crazy from said defines a base distro. Side uses package manager, and features based with or window manager.

    These odd little distros generally help find and handle corner cases it had missed. In this case didn't have pisi pm/SDE handled.

    Wish I'd noticed side before inxi 3.3.37 went out but this always happens.

  22. Обходимся почти без мышки: Некоторые настройки Linux и Xorg для комфортной работы на старом железе

    Статья описывает настройки в консоли linux и графическом окружении для организации быстрой работы с минимальным применением мыши. Описаны настройки systemctl для автозапуска беспроводного интернета, Xorg (раскладка клавиатуры, клавиатурные сокращения). Горячие клавиши работают во всех трёх проверенных автором средах рабочего стола: Openbox с панелью tint2, xfce4 и lxde.
