^ before we answer any questions that might incriminate us in some sort of unexpected way, i'd like to mimick the look the dog in your avatar gives, and ask, "whoooooo areeeee youuuouou?" > intro-thread please! :)

Re: Openbox
I fell in love with tmux, but also pined for the carnal niceties of iceweasel and libreoffice. As such I found Openbox to be a quick setup and great for running a full screen tmux session on one desktop and having a web browser open on another. Therefore, brace yourselves for a PlebianWM scrot! BTW, thank you kexolino for the fantastic walls!

Re: Openbox
Screenshot of my homebrew distro with Openbox. It ships with both XFCE 4 and Openbox by default. Openbox is generally used for really resource starved systems. I have no 'dock', it's all alt+tab etc.
Bathing in peanut butter is good for the soul. Not the chunky kind though, the chunks get stuck in your crack.
Re: Openbox
^ i think Openbox is mainly popularized by Crunchbang, and that is touted as being 'light on resources'. there are in fact many other options if you really want to build a spin for a resource starved system: take a look at all the BBQ spins, basically :)
also see LinuxBBQ Proof, where it was shown how light XFCE can be, despite all the GUI stuffs.
if you really wanna see shit light on resources, have a forum-search for 'sub 100 club' and feast yr eyes :)

Oh yes I know it's not the lightest, but it's light enough for my purposes and I personally rather like it.rhowaldt wrote:^ i think Openbox is mainly popularized by Crunchbang, and that is touted as being 'light on resources'. there are in fact many other options if you really want to build a spin for a resource starved system: take a look at all the BBQ spins, basically :)

I am contemplating writing my own small WM with a focus on multitasking, but probably not. I suck at graphical stuff.

Re: Openbox
^ i agree, i am a pussy Openbox user still as well, despite all the awesome scrots i've seen passing by over time from all manner of cool-looking WMs, i still never felt confident enough to leave my trusted environment. plus, i dont really feel like spending the time to do so.
i bet you could find many a WM already in existence that has a better focus on multitasking then Openbox has. i'd suggest having a look through the Wiki articles about a bunch of WMs, and/or the forumposts.

Re: Openbox
They surely exists my friend. Tilers are there for the mulitasker. Many available. Find one that suits you. We even create a spin to help with that. Or create one. We'll test for you.Subsentient wrote: I am contemplating writing my own small WM with a focus on multitasking,

Re: Screenies
[MOVED] Looks good, LR. Because we have such a wide range of WMs in use amongst our members, we have broken down our scrots section by WM. Please use the appropriate subsection for future scrots. :)

Re: Openbox
OK, with a few helpful hints from machinebacon (rollseyes - a few = mini book) I finally have a BBQ Linux "installed" and running...
VERY VERY basic as I am deep into territory that I know next to nothing about. I dropped the idea of "SidBang" as I thought, if I'm doing this to learn something I'll start with "Summer-64 2014" and add and tweak mt way to what I want. And this is my 3rd attempt to install Summer64 2014 :D
Finally today I got it in place ... WARNING: Boring ... but for me it's a HOT DAMN I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
This is the start of "BBQ-S11"
My sincere thanks to machinebacon.
