NOX: LinuxBBQ Hipster (586) Release Notes
Posted: Sat Apr 25, 2015 1:04 pm
If you want to build a Sidstem ;) from scratch, you can try Hipster.
Download from the 2015 folder: http://sourceforge.net/projects/linuxbbq/files/2015/
Installation notes
after installation, reboot the computer and log in as "root", password "root". Change the root password and add a new user:
That's how to be hip:
log in with your username and password, then set the network up
update and upgrade the package cache
install the only program you will ever need
enable automatic login to Emacs
That's all. Log out and back and you are hip.
Here the instructions how to get from NOX to X:
Change to TTY2 by pressing [Alt] [F2]
log in with your username and password, then set the network up
update and upgrade the package cache
install the stuff you need for X - the following line will install Xorg and some X11 utilities
of course you want dmenu, a terminal (in this example, urxvt), hsetroot for the wallpaper, OSD notifications, and a WM (in this example, jwm)
edit .xinitrc and scroll down to the bottom. Add the window manager you want (right now it shows jwm)
next, we need to make sure tmux is not running on TTY1 later on
If you don't like the 'automatic login to X', you can comment the line.
As next, edit the configuration files of your WM. They are stored in various locations, so check /etc/WINDOW_MANAGER_NAME or /usr/share/doc/WINDOW_MANAGER_NAME/ or even better: man x-window-manager
After this, you can safely log out and back (and pray!)
if everything is set up like written above, you should be in X after entering username and password. Depending on your window manager, you have to set keybindings for dmenu_run and x-terminal-emulator.
Have fun!
