Loving Devuan

Hey, y'all! I just finished up installing & tweaking Devuan Daedalus to my liking. So far I'm absolutely loving it! A huge thanks to the devs!

Re: Loving Devuan

Hello,
that looks pretty cool. Can you tell us how you have achieved this?
Desktop environment, window manager, dock, what artwork?
Keep on with Devuan, it's great, really!
Greetings.

Looks like Xfce with Faenza icons. The wallpaper is a picture of the Victory Arch in Baghdad.

Re: Loving Devuan

Thank you, Head_on_a_Stick,
Great.
Any idea what the dock could be?

Have a nice weekend.

Re: Loving Devuan

I think that's the standard Xfce dock. I might be wrong though.

It looks like it could be Plank, which is what I use.

Re: Loving Devuan

It is LXDE/openbox with Faenza icons and Plank as the dock. The background is, as stated above, Victory Arch (Crossed Swords/Sabres) in Baghdad, Iraq. It's just a little something I whipped up while bored at work in a single night. I'm glad y'all like it.

Re: Loving Devuan

I just tried my hand at building from a cli install. This is the result... It is openbox, tint2, jgmenu, plank, and pcmanfm (managing the desktop). I think it turned out pretty good looking (it also helps that it's a real speedster).

I hope y'all like it. Constructive criticism is welcomed. :-)

Re: Loving Devuan

That looks pretty cool. I love it.
I should try openbox too, once I find the time and a not to busy computer.
Congrats!

Re: Loving Devuan

They don't ship to Australia.

I can send the bill to Aust, but not the product.

I sent an email alerting them of the ommission, and they suggested I use the .com.au site, <edit> https://www.spreadshirt.com.au/shop/clothing/t-shirts/ </edit> ... but I can't find the product (coffee cup, t'shirt) on that site.

Looks like they don't want to sell stuff.
