There's a trick to it. You need to play with gap_x, gap_y, border_width, minimum_size, and use the voffset variable in your conky config. My conky actually has borders all around, but I use voffset to push it up a bit, and my minimum size/width is set a few pixels larger than my total screen width, and I alignment center. It gives the effect of a border at the bottom cos the other 3 corners are hidden. tongue.gif ... need to play around a bit to get it right.

here's my config: http://pastebin.com/93Z9wFQd
Keep in mind that this is for a 1024x600 netbook screen. You'll have to adjust the size accordingly for your width
(Note: the conky is actually 1 line ... dunno why the pastebin sites all separate it like that)

Hope this helps.

Ahh thx notworthy.gif

Can you start evilwm or not? ... or isit starting but not recognizing your ~/.evilwmrc only.

my ~./evilwmrc
CODE
term urxvtc
mask1 mod4
mask2 mod1
altmask shift
fn lime:pixelsize=8
snap 8
bw 2
fg #cccccc
fc #6699cc
bg #999999
#dock dzen2


Very simple, right?! =P Told you it's the most minimal WM ever.
Put it in HOME as a dotfile.

In your xinitrc, make sure you have a "exec evilwm"at the end. if that doesn't work, replace it with "/usr/bin/evilwm".
*
Here's my problem

I can start my evilwm but

Starting with .xinitrc = evilwm will logged in as root instead of my own account

If i start with Xsessions = everything is fine but it does not recognize my ~/.evilwmrc

You're enjoying yourself, aren't you? laugh.gif

BTW, you're using bash, right?
if you want colored man pages, add this bit to the end of your  ~/.bashrc

CODE
#Coloured Man Pages
export LESS_TERMCAP_mb=$'\E[01;31m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\E[01;31m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_se=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_so=$'\E[01;44;33m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\E[0m'
export LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\E[01;32m'
fi

Hmm ... strange. Dunno why it doesn't work on yours.
Try replacing colored man pages part with this;
CODE
export LESS_TERMCAP_mb=$'\E[01;31m'       # begin blinking
export LESS_TERMCAP_md=$'\E[01;38;5;74m'  # begin bold
export LESS_TERMCAP_me=$'\E[0m'           # end mode
export LESS_TERMCAP_se=$'\E[0m'           # end standout-mode
export LESS_TERMCAP_so=$'\E[38;5;246m'    # begin standout-mode - info box
export LESS_TERMCAP_ue=$'\E[0m'           # end underline
export LESS_TERMCAP_us=$'\E[04;38;5;146m' # begin underline

I gotta sleep ... continue after work tomorrow.
Good night man.

Can't remember. Try something like "xcompmgr -cCfF -t-11 -l-12 -r8.8 -o1 -D4"
@Patent
Zipped a few for ya = http://ompldr.org/vOXFrOQ/Term-Scripts.zip
Some are mine, some were made by friends, and some I found online in various forums.
Put them in a directory in your $PATH (usually ~/bin in my case) or just in Home, make em executable (chmod +x) and run them from a terminal. They're configured for Urxvt and Xterm, so I'm not quite sure if they'll display correctly in other terminal emulators.

Hmm , we are doing it the minimal way laugh.gif

We are using Tiling Manager , its abit different from the full blown Gnome or KDE , its just "simple" laugh.gif Everything depends on the mouse and the keybindings

U might wanna try it first before going fully with it laugh.gif

Once you get a hang of it , you'll LOVE it laugh.gif

Back to the topic biggrin.gif

What is RatWM? O_o ... I've never come across it. Do you mean Ratpoison?
And NO, I don't use ALL laugh.gif ... there are some I haven't had the time to try in-depth like StumpWM (lisp isn't my fave language anyway) and some I won't ever go near again (Awesome... seriously, who codes a WM in Lua?!) and some that just don't work right for my needs (i3). Tbh, I'm pretty much settled on Scrot and Dwm for my tiling and Openbox, Cwm and EvilWM for my floating needs, with the ocassional excursion to maybe PekWM.

One WM I always wanted to try was WMFS. It's absolutely wonderful in use, and can be configured with almost infinite possibilities. Reason I don't run it right now is because it displayed higher CPU load cycles than normal when I last tried, and had a habit of leaking memory and forcing the swap. It's still on my -to-do list, though. Try it if you like. No official debs but the main site has instructions for getting a PPA up or pulling from Github.
Zai,
EvilWM and Openbox are not Tiling window managers. They're still stacking/floating types, FYI laugh.gif

huh? ... Arch standard repos still only have 2.6.39? O_o

Anyways, what's your opinion on Arch? Good, no?

sweat.gif Ahh i was wondering that too

Arch = simple icon_rolleyes.gif

Uses only 2.2G on overall installation shocking.gif

Performance wise = Pacman is faster than apt-get hmm.gif

But subtle loads abit slower ohmy.gif

But overall = ITS WORTH IT laugh.gif

Troubleshooted over 12 hours and now its complete thumbup.gif

^ Yes, Pacman is faster. PArt of it is down to how the packages are handled and part of it is down to security (Pacman does not have signed packages). You can get apt-fast for Apt, which speeds it up to some extent. Colored Pacman output is nice, though. smile.gif

Debian can get much smaller if you use Smxi and related for system maintenance, btw.

Ahh laugh.gif

One thing for sure , Arch is bleeding edge and Debian is as stable as rock laugh.gif
