I've enjoyed your work in LXDE, for the past couple of months.
Simply, Beautiful!
The way in which Abiword was configured is greatly appreciated.
All is well...

Well, going by just his top sentence, he could have meant he was playing a Neil Diamond CD on loop for two months while using LXDE.

PCLinuxOS: A revolution in personal computing


« Reply #10 on: October 21, 2011, 11:47:31 AM »

I have to agree - I am increasingly logging into LXDE. I've made it look very KDE3-ish - this is how:

1. As root, copy the icon /usr/share/icons/nuoveXT-aero/32x32/apps/gnome-logout.png to the folder /usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/apps

2. Install qgtstyle from synaptic, otherwise KDE and QT apps will look UGLY! Once this is installed, they will use the GTK widgets.

3. In "Configure Openbox" use the "Clearlooks" window decorator.

4. In "GTK and Icon Theme" use "Clearlooks" widgets, and "Oxygen" Icon Theme.

And that's it. Something that reminds me of the old look, but lightweight and capable of running the latest versions of everything.

Thanks for that one. Not that I want the KDE3 look, but I do want PRETTY.  Wink
