I wouldn't really know where to look. Based on what you have though, I would say you can no longer access/mount any swap file you created on install.

If my original comment was correct, you can install rcconf with apt and edit your services - there are two that may be related to what you just deleted - they start with "live".

You may be getting errors because those services can't start - I don't know what either does.

Should finish by pointing out, I'm just brain storming here and you may totally bork your system.

welcome to the distro and forum.

From that video, it looks like the top margin width can be set independently from the other margins to make room for the panel, but not sacrifice desktop real estate along the margins or between windows. Have you looked into the configuration enough to know how that was done?

I'm not using it at the moment, so I haven't followed the arch forum thread or really looked past basic configuration.

^ They are are basically move and resize command combinations; should be doable in openbox and pekwm.

[snip] ... for me it's (conky) a long and winding road that has become boring as hell

I tend to echo that sentiment. Rather than jump on the interactive bandwagon, why not go in the opposite direction and make conky basically run in the background - for example, when my CPU temp exceeds 60C, have it send a notification and icon to the system tray or desktop. Be more an exercise in scripting and widget making, I suppose.

Personally, I don't really want to click on the conky window to find out what's happening.

^ seriously?

I recall seeing something in the startup services that may be related to that directory.

Why not pink - knock yourself out.

QuoteI have been running Vsido for a couple of months now and overall consider it the best distro experience I have ever had.  For me it is a perfect blend of what I want with a few things in or out I would like to have.  Instead of making base changes to my system it really has been a case of tweaking a little here and there.  I don't know of anything that could be done that could make that any better.  There will always be things here or there that could or could not be included.  Overall though what matters to me is I can go from an empty box to my setup in far less time than I have ever been able to do with any set up.

+1 - Usable, user friendly, debian sid-based distro out of the box.

QuoteVSIDO is SID to that and it is a complete vision of what I want to accomplish with VSIDO

and that's what matters - you don't look over Worhol's shoulder and say to him "add some yellow" 

definitely some interesting artwork on that site -

@vastone -

the actual key binding is in the screenshot - i3 this time

the script I use - scrot_delay.sh - is taken from an example in the scrot man page:

#!/bin/sh
exec scrot -q 100 -c -d 5 '%B_%s_$wx$h.jpg' -e 'mv $f ~/pictures/' &
exit 0

use it in key binding or terminal.



it would seem that lwfitz is in a cursing mode these days:

Without looking at the smxi script, I would say you're correct and nouveau isn't getting installed/loaded properly. I suspect the script is similar to what I have to do which is:

1. blacklist nouveau modules
2. reboot to non-nouveau
3. Install nvidia drivers

good you got it working.

My only hitch was an install hang at the grub installation section. second try was no issues.

^ nice one; is it all original work?

got my fluxbox key bindings and decors the way I want them -



solid release vastone, treat yourself to 36 holes on dizzie's account 

Didn't know there was basic tiling native to cwm, tiling is always handy:



just add key bindings in .cwmrc for htile and vtile.

Nice work with this release vastone -

^, ^^ muchas gracias

Started out as an exercise in using MacroCmd and ToggleCmd (see fluxbox wiki for details) - I chose window placement to see if I could replicate the Win-Left/Right/Up/Down behavior of Windows 7. Used only native fluxbox commands and have hit a couple snags when multiple windows are open - tiling to the right doesn't always work - but will if the key binding is invoked again; unfortunately, I do not know of a way for fluxbox to resize a window based on a percentage of the desktop, not pixels (my commands are for 1366x768 laptop, adjust for your monitors). I suspect that using scripts with wmctl and/or xdotool smoother tiling is possible. Adding ToggleDecor to the command string would probably be beneficial too.



as far as I know, pytile works with fluxbox - but that's cheating 
the object with this exercise is to use fluxbox's internal commands to get the desired results.

Edit - Received a telepathic message from Captain Obvious this morning (in my world she looks like Salma Hayek); if 50% is used instead of, say 50, with the ResizeTo command, fluxbox will interpret that as 50% of the desktop real estate and account for the fluxbox toolbar and anything docked in the slit (conky in my instance) rather than 50 pixels.



now just have to solve issue of tiling to right.

Edit #2 - last one, I promise - MacroCmd is read left to right so the order matters:

ToggleDecor --> ResizeTo --> MoveTo = the proper order, all the windows are tiled as desired.



and the code, one chain to untile the active window:

# manual tiling with key chains - useing chains to avoid clash with keybindings #

Ctrl a Mod4 h :ArrangeWindowsHorizontal
Ctrl a Mod4 v :ArrangeWindowsVertical

Ctrl a Mod4 l :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 UpperLeft} {MaximizeVertical}
Ctrl a Mod4 r :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 UpperRight} {MaximizeVertical}
Ctrl a Mod4 t :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 UpperLeft} {MaximizeHorizontal}
Ctrl a Mod4 b :MacroCmd {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 LowerLeft} {MaximizeHorizontal}

Ctrl a Mod1 h :MacroCmd {ToggleDecor} {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 UpperLeft}
Ctrl a Mod1 j :MacroCmd {ToggleDecor} {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 UpperRight}
Ctrl a Mod1 k :MacroCmd {ToggleDecor} {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 LowerLeft}
Ctrl a Mod1 l :MacroCmd {ToggleDecor} {ResizeTo 50% 50%} {MoveTo 0 0 LowerRight}

Ctrl a Mod4 m :MacroCmd {ToggleDecor} {Resize 60% 40%} {MoveTo 0 0 Center}

enough for now, time to back up files and set up for Velociraptor install.
