this 'slim Slacko 6' can be reintroduced, if it was only an attack, to be seen with the administrator. No for me, i have it. Some support and help will be available from ninaholic (Category Puppy derivatives, of course)

Hello all.

Here's the devx for Slim-6:
-- https://www.adrive.com/public/8bgFCS/devx_slim_6.sfs --

It's the same as the one for Slacko-6, but without the "forgotten menhir"

.

Do not enjoy, do not pass Go, do not collect $200.

Slim Slacko is waiting for you ! Just ring the bell

There is no reason to go crazy about it - "il n'y a pas de quoi fouetter un chat !"
Sure Moeppy Puppy is much more reasonable.You could change the default background, however. That will not prevent you using Slim Slacko.

To me this poor little girl just looks like a multiple heavy drug abuser...

Hello, LazY_PuppY, pelo and all.

I think I mentioned this before: it's only a wallpaper... You can easily change it. I did.

Here's one site (among many many others) where you can go to find and download a
new wallpaper: https://wall.alphacoders.com/by_sub_cat ... ?id=167192

My Slim-6 desktop now looks like this: (please see attached).

Re the lady shown above...

My wife tells me that:
"Red and green should never be seen, except upon an Irish queen".
And...
There have been no native Queens of Ireland since the late 12th century.

Hi Sylvander.

I added in my pevious post the source URL where I got that photograph from.

For the record, there's another photograph with the same model and animal, at
https://abstract.desktopnexus.com/get/2119574, and that one is signed:
"Alexandra Gileta,www.giletafoto.ru".

Credit where credit is due! Thank you, Ms. Gileta, for sharing your talent.

Who knows? Maybe Ireland and Russia have some legends in common? Or this
Russian lady photographer was somehow influenced by Celtic folklore?

BFN.

slim x, slim; thin. Puppy Builders give users their Puppies to test..
A long time ago, Puppies were released on the forum for public usage.
Generally, in productivity system, first users are asked what they need, and then developers try to satisfy them . World in puppy seems to go upside down !
Merci à X-Slacko Slim to question us and trying to satisfy users, even with trimming the fat. I wanted to underline that.
What would you like as Puppy ? it's so rare you ask the question, dear linux students.

Musher, that's quite the makeover!

How did you achieve all that?

Who, me? I just came up with a specific devx for slim_6. Nothing more.
What are you talking about, moeppyfan? I don't understand.

I mean in the desktop screenshot you posted, silly brain!

It looks nothing like mine (or slacko).

Oh, I see what you mean now.

The window manager I use now in Slim_6 is: wmx
-- port & cornsilk themed version is here
-- if you're serious about wmx, may I suggest that you start looking here and
follow that thread.

At the top, in the middle, you see: conky, with a 2-liner config file.

At the top right: a colorized rclock, from the old rxvt package -- Please see attached.

At the left is a: rox panel -- A sample left-side rox panel is also attached,
WHICH YOU WILL HAVE TO ADAPT TO YOUR NEEDS!

At the bottom I have: the beautiful and efficient bmpanel2, with its "Light T" theme.
(wmx does not have a panel or tray, so one has to be provided separately.)
-- You can download an archive of it through here.

If you want more info on this, just ask!

IHTH. BFN.

(The following sentence edited July 9 2016: )
P.S. -- For now that'll do (plus the conky link quoted by moeppyfan two posts
below this one). Maybe in the not too distant future I'll try to put everything in a
"makeover" package that people can download.

musher0 · #46 Post by **musher0** » Fri 08 Jul 2016, 01:43

Hello moeppyfan.

I just updated my post above to include some URLS for downloading and/or explaining
the various components of my makeover.

What's left is the conky component. Back with that one later.

Bye for now.

moeppyfan · #47 Post by **moeppyfan** » Fri 08 Jul 2016, 06:19

Thanks Musher! That was an entertaining list of puzzles to unravel!

I had no idea you were a windows manager Wizard.

Seeing as your other tricks were in existing links, I kept going and found your last url on my own

http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic.php?p=889310#889310

The only other things I had to do after (I think) was:

Code: Select all

ln -s /usr/lib/libncurses.so.5 /usr/lib/libtinfo.so.5
conky -c /root/.conky-2lignes-wmx3

After all that fun, I got so used to wmx that when I used jwm again I automatically tried closing from the left corner.

musher0 · #48 Post by **musher0** » Sat 09 Jul 2016, 23:06

Thanks for saving me the trouble of finding that conky link again, moeppyfan!
Yep, that's the one!

I'm glad you like wmx. It's not a the prettiest wm, with its square corners,
but it's certainly one of the most efficient ! (IMO)

Anything else, just drop me a line !

(And thanks for the compliment!

)

Have you got a screenie of your new baby ?

I have started using Slim Slacko 6.
Where can I get a claws-mail which works?

I tried various claws-mail_3.8*, missing libraries?

Thank you,
Sheldon Isaac

Hi Sheldon Isaac.

Thanks for your interest in Slim6.

I hope ninaholic will get back on the forum sometime.
Meanwhile, I'm sorry for not being able to help you much on this:
I'm a fan of webmails, myself...

As to missing libs, it's sort of to be expected on a trimmed down
Puppy like this.

When I have a minute, I'll try to compile your Claws-Mail app on Slim6
and see what I can come up with.

BFN.
