Show us your screen

So I've just defaulted to what I know (and what configs I have) and installed sdorfehs which, I do think it's probably the best option on such a small screen. The track pad on this laptop is also shite so I suppose a keyboard workflow is also preferable..

Also, someone please share their .dillorc. its the only Bowser I can stand to use with only 2gb of ram

So I've been using LXQt on my desktop machine for a couple weeks now and I must say, it's quite comfortable. I thought he default Ambiance theme looked nice with the grey and orange so I modified the Clearlooks OpenBox theme to match. Finally I can appreciate some nice drop shadows 🙂

I should probably go to sleep...

It's NetBSD 10.0 with spectrwm, custom shell script as a status bar and Xterm as my terminal of choice. The font is IBM Plex Mono.

IrisFeeling Nice to see spectrwm again. It was a long time ago, https://i.imgur.com/NJTEdRp.png

Coming soon, LXQt-2.1.0

Simple, sleek, fast ctwm on NetBSD:

szilard

9Front running in Bhyve zone on OmniOS, connected via Tailscale running in a different zone, routed to me (15 km or so) into the Tailscale client running on an OpenBSD VM running in Qemu on Windows 10, forwarding all the necessary ports and then drawterm uses those ports to show the GUI.

This doesn't look like much; but to me it's bliss. Not wanting to upgrade Debian to comply with some impending update deadline; I gave up and installed NetBSD on this special-purpose machine that only runs ffmpeg scripts and shotcut. It just knocks my socks off every time I get to ditch Debian for NetBSD. It really feels like going outside after years of looking out through a window. Everything stays exactly the same but there is no systemd hanging over my head, no weird hacks to make things work, and... things are faster 🙂

Now if only I could get shotcut to work. Oh! and I have to rename those shell windows!!!

Some more recent screnshots of mine, which I hadn't uploaded here.

ctwm on laptop, no titlebars. Theme inspired by Bunsenlabs default. Status bar based on lemonbar

emwm on desktop PC. Same IRIX inspired theme as before, with minor changes,

fwvm3 on the same desktop PC, but on Slackware + pkgsrc.

It has been over 18 months with the same set-up. Time for a refresh ...

EDIT:

pin Beautiful, as always!

I've been trying FreeBSD and OpenBSD, but I've never tried NetBSD, so why not give it a try? Right now, I really like it—more than FreeBSD and OpenBSD.

Here’s a screenshot of my NetBSD install with wmutils + Glazier.

arpnsh 🤣 you are smarter than me. I've packaged glazier on user request but, I've never figured out how to use it.

That and wmutils.

arpnsh

pin At first, I didn’t understand how to use it either, but someone asked on Reddit, and Z3bra replied with instructions on how to use it. He also has a blog that explains it. After reading that, it all started to click. Glazier and wmutils—once you get familiar with them—are pretty powerful tools.

Thanks! I'm happy with my wm, though. Have no plan to change them, marswm on NetBSD and leftwm on Void Linux. I've also used, awesomewm, spectrwm and frankenwm prior to my current choices.

arpnsh I was the one who originally requested Pin to package both wmutils and glazier. Been on nixers.net for some time and have been following z3bra's work. He's a real wizard.

Would love it if you could link me to his reddit comment and the blog entry. I did get pure wmutils up and running a while back with some basic scripts, but never actually got glazier working.

Would love to give it another try.

Also, PLEASE tell me how to get the plan9 cursor! You might wanna DM me or this thread is gonna get OT real quick 😆

arpnsh

pfr He posted how to use wmutils on his blog, You are the WM and reddit People using WMUtils, how do you use it?. Also, check out the script he uses on his Git repository: https://git.z3bra.org/scripts/files.html. It's a great script. For the Plan9 cursor, I got it from https://π.duncano.de/.
