Thank you for your continued support of LostintheBox.

I'll go first . . .

My 2 most recent Fluxbox desktops:


A Fluxbox build on Debian (testing) - with NO desktop environment.


This one is the LinuxMint-Debian-Edition with Fluxbox added over Xfce.

The Conky gives most of the pertinent system details.

Fluxbox, Debian Wheezy.

Using tint2 as a pager, compositing with xcompmgr.

Very nice Wheezy-Fluxbox layout. I've seen this wallpaper somewhere else. Hmm.

I really like the 'idea' of using tint2 as the pager. Thanks for the fresh concept.

Ipager is also a nice pager for fluxbox. > http://www.useperl.ru/ipager/index.en.html

Just popping in to post a screenshot:

@ ElderV.LaCoste

I have always liked your Fluxbox screenshots, help and ideas; over in the #!Crunchbang Forums.

And the fact that you, like me, are an avid Fluxbox user.

Thanks for joining the LostintheBox Forum.

And a great screenshot it is. Reminds me of a brownish Chaos. Would love to see the menu. Good work!

My latest Debian 7 Wheezy with Fluxbox WM.

A basic fb-style I found; then, heavily modified by me. I changed everything.

I tried to make everything (background, menu, fb-panel, conky, terminal, window-theme) to match in style and color.

Thanks for the kind words. I am indeed a Fluxbox enthusiast. It is nice to have a place to share ideas.





Thank you. I have a couple screenshots of the menu but I am still working on it because my sound in Crunchbang suddenly quit working and I tried everything and eventually ended up writing zeros to my hard drive and completely starting over with Xubuntu. It is not working as well on Xubuntu but I have sound now lol. If anyone can tell me how to get a "volumeicon" in the tray to adjust the sound I would really appreciate it. I can't seem to get volwheel to work. Is it possible to use a volume manager from Xfce?

Mod: You forgot to Log-in to the *box Forum.

I had to manually install "volumeicon" from Synaptic.

Then, add " volumeicon & " to my ~/.fluxbox/startup

After which, I did 'Reconfigure' from the Fluxbox Menu ... the volumeicon does show up in the systemtray of the fb-panel.

Had to do the same thing to get the Network Manager icon/applet to show up in the systemtray.

Thanks Vrkalak. Great scrot by the way. Unfortunately volumeicon was not in the Xubuntu repository. I found the solution here (second post): http://forums.fedoraforum.org/archive/i ... 65803.html

I just installed 'gnome-volume-control-applet' and put this in my Fluxbox start file:

There you go, Debian testing

What was the original theme for this? Did you change the colorscheme - if so, can you post the theme.cfg

Working on a new theme - borrowing from the Zimek themes:

Yes ... I changed (almost) everything in the "myDEFCON_1" fb-style, I found here > http://tenr.de/styles/

And used this tutorial, as a guide for my fb-style customization > http://tenr.de/howto/style_fluxbox/style_fluxbox.html

There are only about 200 or so, fb-styles to choose from. And an infinite number of customization options.
