HAPPY 30TH BDAY GNU! I LUB YOUUUUUU!

This is awesome! Def. something I will look forward to using as I usually don't mess with conky, BUT this brings it to life! Thanks digit!

Thanks! Maybe I should include a warning, "WARNING! Not for people too old to read the label on the front of a milk jug!" Haha.

I admit it may be an eye strain for people.

Just thought I would throw my config in here as well as another screenie to what it looks like.



And here are the configs for xmonad and xmobar! It is a fairly plain WM unless you REALLY get in depth with the customization.

EDIT: If you like the font in the SS's you will need to DL the Inconsolata font as so: sudo apt-get install fonts-inconsolata

I just want to say, if you like to use as MUCH screen space as you can to produce maximum efficiency, then xmonad is your WM to turn to!
For instance, this is my screen when mildly busy, I am in 5 IRC rooms as well as watching a movie and can compile something too! Not amazing you say? Well here is the thing, it is all on a 13" screen!



Xmonad

import XMonad
import XMonad.Hooks.DynamicLog

    [ className =? "Gimp"      --> doFloat
    , className =? "Vncviewer" --> doFloat
    ]

    xmonad $ defaultConfig
        { manageHook = manageDocks <+> myManageHook -- make sure to include myManageHook definition from above
                        <+> manageHook defaultConfig
        , layoutHook = avoidStruts  $  layoutHook defaultConfig
        , logHook = dynamicLogWithPP xmobarPP
                        { ppOutput = hPutStrLn xmproc
                        , ppTitle = xmobarColor "#868686" "" . shorten 50
                        }
        , modMask = mod4Mask     -- Rebind Mod to the Windows key
        } `additionalKeys`
        [ ((mod4Mask .|. shiftMask, xK_z), spawn "xscreensaver-command -lock")

Xmobar

       , sepChar = "%"
       , alignSep = "}{"

       }


Come on we can do better than that!



Xmonad + xmobar

Ah great! Thanks dizzie. I tried looking for boot error logs awhile ago but couldn't find anything about them heh.

Xmonad in VSIDO! Hehehe enjoy iiiiittttt, BASK in the sweet simplicity.



OH and vastone that sounds great! I love that in screenfetch is says VSIDO 2 VELOCIRAPTOR

Yes dizzie I have done modprobe for the i915 driver and it gives me no output but I assume that means it is found.

It seems the res is fixed, I have booted a few times and it has stayed native res, BUT! I know have a random kernel panic on boots at random intervals REGARDING the i915 driver soooo I will be working on chasing down the time sequence on booting I suppose.

It was def. a project but I enjoyed it and hey, a bit of learning goes a long way!

Here is one of my usual wm xmonad Got it working in ubuntu the way I wanted finally! Hah. Now to try it in VSIDO when I get it zippin along.

cheers!


And if you ask nicely, i'll share my configs for .Xdefaults vim weechat(with plugins) and i3(with conky)


Latest scrot to show off :

That weechat is awesome I wonder if I can impliment /window splith+v effectively

I am a bowie fan so I listen to a lot of him xD

Very nice dizzie! I like The background sets it off!

Though I HAVE vsido installed xD THIS is my ubuntu setup heh.

I REALLY like default xmonad minus the custom binds for app execs so I am I think...too afraid to try this xD
