Mixed bag

[wuxmedia]

cool, i'll give that go.

[machinebacon]

^^ lol :)

Looks really nice, though it might be a bit irritating when white fonts clash on white backgrounds :D

[wuxmedia]

needs a very carefully chosen background. and/or color configs.
damn server needs some lovin'
will it work over ssh i wonder?

[dkeg]

still bloat

[machinebacon]

Bloat? This is /ENOUGH!

[wuxmedia]

dear pidsley;
think you'll find that's apt-cache search, still;
fbv compiled! - script copied and chmod a+x
it runs as root to get to the fb0?
BUT
no joy.... the picture flashes up then back to kernel fb.
fbterm on its own - fine and dandy
fbv -ciucker sweet.
must be the script.

dear pidsley;

dear wux; no, I meant apt-file. apt-file searches for packages that contain something you know (like a header file) but when you don't know the name of the actual package. very useful when make complains that it can't find Xlib.h and you don't know what package you need to install.

oh, i just got a 'command not found'. obviously i don't do a lot of compiling.
apt-cache worked quite well with this set, just had to install the -dev's...

Wait, do I see correct? A BBQ USB tool. :D

[wuxmedia]

finally. 8)

[pidsley]

^ sweet! and good background choice.

[wuxmedia]

thanks pids! gonna hack those colours.
just found this link;
http://xcolors.net/

[ivanovnegro]

@Wux: Greaty and nice new resource for Xresources.

[rhowaldt]

hey that BBQ USB tool looks nice! damn this reminds me that i should update the Wiki again...

[machinebacon]

You guys are funny, it's a default app since Cameltoe :D

nice site. Clean way to display. There is also dotshare.it. But this brings an interesting method for sharing. Might give some ideas here. Hmmmm

EDIT: fix url link display

[machinebacon]

^ Agree, xcolors simply presents it better, cleaner. Already found a dream color combo: http://xcolors.net/dl/euphrasia

[wuxmedia]

I'm thinking of rinsing the entire xdefaults thread at crunchbong...
I mean it's all open source...?
maybe it's my inadequacy, i can't see colours in HEX, 8(
(and yes, that explains my website 8p)

so it pisses me off to have a resource like that almost totally useless.
i've forked it, so i'll jam the guys fork box with some pushpop things.
i figure if he's interested maybe able to change between a few scripts or maybe upload your desired background img. to see how it looks.
although i just need urxvt to run the colours.

wife is at our friends art show. Kids are in bed. Just having some beers and screwing around.



no its not vsido :D

[machinebacon]

^ You're definitely crazy (in a positive way!) :D Hope it's really just a wallpaper, and not some Lua construct in Conky :D
