A thread to park some tweaks that we do once installed
Here is one
For some reason, the tint2 icon for SpaceFM does not show up as it is supposed to
To correct it do this:
In SpaceFM go to View / Window Icon and put in
vsidosfm
Click OK and the issue is solved
The first time you boot to a Fluxbox session, you may see a terribly fugly brown menu
To correct this click the desktop Right Click Menu / Styles and select vsido_black and the problem is solved
That OB and Fluxbox use the same tint2 files
tint2 -c /usr/local/bin/.tint2oblaunchers/tint2rc &
tint2 -c /usr/local/bin/.tint2oblaunchers/tint2rcallbtm
but Xfce uses
tint2 -c /usr/local/bin/.tint2launchers/tint2rc
tint2 -c /usr/local/bin/.tint2launchers/tint2rcallbtm
This is because the menu button on the Tint2 bottom panel is controlled differently with Xfce
Fluxbox and Xfce also use the same .conkyrc file becasue both can handle the panel setting while OB uses .conky_ob_rc because it needs:
own_window_type desktop
To eliminate the top right hand tint2 and make it a part of the bottom tint do the following:
sudo medit /usr/local/bin/.tint2oblaunchers/tint2rcallbtm
or if in Xfce
sudo medit /usr/local/bin/.tint2launchers/tint2rcallbtm
and make this happen under Panel
panel_items = LTS
That will add the systray to the right of the bottom Tint2
You can now then disable from Autostart or startup this
tint2 -c /usr/local/bin/.tint2oblaunchers/tint2rc &
or in Xfce
tint2 -c /usr/local/bin/.tint2launchers/tint2rc
Thanks for all of the above, appreciate it, I also set my bottom panel to autohide whilst at it, so now my debiverse is in place again. Just a little suggestion though, change the thread title to something more like "How to...":)
Thanks blaze
All the panels use to autohide by default but some complained that they did not know they were there
I appreciate the feedback
