Slim Theme Darch

I created a new Slim theme for ArchLinux using the new logo and uploaded it to AUR with the name slim-theme-darch. I hope you like.

Bash script: Rotate your wallpaper and SLiM theme at the same time

EDIT;
I've decided I should really thank Cerebral for his help with writing this script; this thank you should have been here from the get go.
After writing:
#!/usr/bin
echo "Hello World!"
I wrote a script to rotate my fluxbox background and SLiM theme at the same time, so I could have a contiuously changing background and still have a smooth transition from SLiM to fluxbox. (It just looks so much cooler when both have matching backgrounds). By the time you finish reading it, and configuring your box so it will work, you will probably have decided you could have writtin your own, better script to do the same thing. But, on the off chance anybody finds use for it, here it is:
(this should be obvious, but: don't run this script without at least reading the comments)
#!/bin/bash
#this is a script to rotate a number of backgrounds
#to be shared by the fluxbox desktop and SLiM login manager.
#it is the first meaningful script I've written. It may be
#freely distributed and used with the understanding that you are
#using it at your own risk.
#Before running this script you need to check that your SLiM
#themes are installed to the path /usr/share/slim/themes, which
#is the defulat path for installation in Arch. Here are some
#other things you need to set up:
#1. create (if you don't have it) the directory /usr/share/wallpapers
#2. create a wallpaper in /usr/share/wallpapers called 'dummy' by copying
#you current wallpaper to that filename
#3. set your window manager to display the wallpaper 'dummy', this works fine
#using a style overlay in fluxbox, I haven't tested it with any other window
#manager, but I don't see why this would cause a problem.
#4. create a directory /usr/share/slim/themes/current, you can copy one of
#your slim themes into that directory if you want. (this will prevent you
#from seeing some error messages the first time you run the script)
#5. define the names of the themes you want to rotate, in order for this
#script to work, you must name them "themeNUMBER", where NUMBER is replaced
#by an integer. Your themes must be numbered consecutively, start with 1
# that is:
#theme1 , theme2, theme3, etc. , theme305
#If you don't number consecutively, this script will not run properly. You
#must also define the total number of themes as "rotate_number"
#6. Check if the script runs, if it does, you should change /etc/slim.conf to
#use the theme "current"
#7. This theme will now rotate your SLiM theme and wallpaper in such a way as
#to make them match each other. Note that SLiM will not let you change themes
#"on the fly", (as of July 6, 2008), so changes will not be apparent unless you
#restart SLiM. I run the script before I run slim in my etc/rc.local local
#script, so each time I reboot I get different wallpaper / login background.
#Fred Drueck 2008
#Define here all themes to be rotated and the total number of
#themes to rotate:
rotate_number=9

oh i forgot to mention... its rotating while moving. i.e. is doesn't have to stop rotate and then continue back to origin.

SLiM themes

i made up a few slim themes here if anyone else wants to try them out. i was going to submit them to the slim developers, but i didn't see any email address on their site. so i guess it's an "arch only" special.

Wow, those are awesome - perhaps submit there here: http://developer.berlios.de/bugs/?group_id=2663
Or possibly file a bug that there's no way to contact them?
Aaron, can you please include them in slim-themes package meanwhile?

SLiM theme Burning-Arch

Hi,
I've made a slim theme.
If you'd like to use it, it's in AUR.
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=18455

you're right
no-problem, I can share it via dropbox https://www.dropbox.com/s/k7gojpmdkmyg2 … 080.tar.gz
PS: use this link only if original link doesn't work

export GPG_AGENT_INFO SSH_AUTH_SOCK
I don't know whats missing I did everything the wiki told me still Slim only showing default theme. Please help. Thanks.

I could be wrong but you seem to be confusing themes specific to slim with themes for gtk. The themes available for slim are in /usr/share/slim/themes.

[solved] Slim themes conflict with e2fsprogs

I tried installing a couple of slim themes, and got a message saying...
util-Linux-ng conflicts with e2fsprogs. Remove e2fsprogs?
I am currently on my desktop trying to install arch on a old laptop.
Last edited by Jboxer (2010-02-08 01:24:46)

I have discovered e2fsprogs has to deal with Ext2 Filesystem Utilities, i have installed Ext4, therefore I might try to remove the programs that are dependent of e2fsprogs. I would like to receive some more suggestions before I do anything.
Edit: It also is used for Ext4, so scratch that idea.

Dwm slim themes (8-pack)

In keeping with my dwm wallpaper thread, I've released an 8-pack of SLIM login themes for dwm fans:
EDIT: The files can now be found here: http://cinderwick.ca/projects/dwm-artwork-themes/
Four styles are included, each with a light and dark scheme. In addition to SLIM, you'll need the 'artwiz-fonts' package (available from the repositories) for proper viewing. A couple of previews are below:

[SLiM] Theme Configuration

My current theme (custom built): http://i.imgur.com/o5cAt0E.png
My questions are:
1. How can I use "Gohufont" instead of "Verdana", I tried to add "input_font Gohufont:size=12" but didn't work.
2. Is there a way to hide the cursor ( | ) and only see the characters.
- http://slim.berlios.de/themes_howto.php
- https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/SLiM
Thanks.

Hm, wrong font name maybe? Does your slim log complain about it somehow?
2. Is there a way to hide the cursor ( | ) and only see the characters.
You should be able to do that via your slim.conf.
1. No, slim.log only says:
slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
The font is installed at "/usr/share/fonts/misc/"
gohufont-11.pcf.gz
gohufont-14.pcf.gz
gohufont-uni-11.pcf.gz
gohufont-uni-14.pcf.gz
2. There's only an option to hide the mouse cursor, not the " | " that appears when typing something...

Arch-tetra SLiM theme

AUR
Github
Inspiration from here.
Looks like Rydgel never shared his theme, so I made something similar.
The original probably uses a non-free font called 'Ginza Medium' which I don't have acces to, so I used 'Tetra ITC Std Light' for the logo which is pretty close to the original.
Requires the 'artwiz-fonts' package for the 'edges' font.
EDIT: Rydgel did relese his theme here

I just released 1.1 which should be more antialiased. As for high-res version, I'm not entirely sure what you need, the background already is just an 200x200 square which tiles so any resolution should be fine. You can also find the .xcf for the logo here

[SOLVED]Slim and gdm questions

Hi all,
I just installed slim cause I wanted to try something new and faster than gdm login manager for gnome, I have it working right now but with a few hiccups:
1- I login using slim, but after I am logged in the system if I lock the screen, the gdm login shows (instead of the slim one)
2- System bootup is a LOT slower, after I login the system stays with just the background for a few seconds, then loads the desktop.
So, here are my questions:
a) If I remove gdm will I have this same issues? maybe the increased boot time is because I have 2 login managers installed?
b) I disabled the gdm daemon from rc.conf (put a ! before it), should I remove it from there completely? because apparently it is still loading.
Also I dont know much about login managers so I wanted a little enlightenment in this matter.
regards and thanks in advance

When i run "systemctl start slim" on tty1 slim starts again and after exiting openbox twice i'm back on tty1.
...But when i run "slim" on tty1 slim starts and i can exit openbox as often as i want.
Any ideas ?
Edit:
Running /usr/bin/slim from tty1 gives me this logfile.
/var/log/slim.log
slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
slim: waiting for X server to shut down
slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
slim: waiting for X server to shut down
slim: waiting for X server to begin accepting connections.
Somehow the second "slim: waiting for X server to shut down" does not happen when running "systemctl start slim"

Ok, I was able to workaround parts of the bug:
I changed slim.conf and and set daemon = true (so slim runs as a daemon). Furthermore changed the slim.service file for systemd:
[Service]
Type = forking
PIDFile = /var/lock/slim.lock
ExecStart=/usr/bin/slim
Now I can log in and out as often as I want. Seems to work. However, nm-applet only shows up in odd numbers of logins:
1st login --> nm-applet is shown
2nd login --> nm-applet is not shown (but running --> htop)
3rd login --> nm-applet is shown
4th login --> nm-applet is not shown (but running --> htop)
...and so on...
I search the web, it seems to be a problem with dbus and the order how the services get started. Don't know if that is true...any ideas from anyone?

[SOLVED] New slim, can't shutdown|reboot|suspend anymore

Hi!
I just upgraded slim, and i notice that i cannot suspend, shutdown and reboot anymore.
And to mount usb drive, i am asked for my password.
After the upgrade i changed /etc/slim.conf,pacnew to suit my needs and then sudo mv /etc/slim.conf.pacnew /etc/slim.conf .
My .xinitrc is the same, so, where is the problem?
here there are my slim.conf:

From later in this thread:
Solution
Ok, do:
ck-list-sessions
There were two sessions for myself. So, the new slim is starting your exec line already with a console kit session. This is new behavior. It didn't before.
So, I modified my exec line to remove "ck-launch-session" in .xinitrc to:
exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4
Reverted the changes I made to the shutdown/restart policy and rebooted. Shutdown, restart, mounting USB drive: they all work again now.
Edit: from even later on in this thread, just:
exec startxfce4
As your .xinitrc exec line should be sufficient for practically anyone. "startxfce4" does the dbus-launch itself.
Original post here:
Changed in my /etc/slim.conf:
default_path /bin:/usr/bin:/usr/local/bin:/sbin:/usr/sbin
Same issue, in Action buttons Shutdown and Restart grayed out.
in .xinitrc, launch line:
exec ck-launch-session startxfce4
Launch line was:
exec ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session startxfce4
But, same issue with that launch line. Was googling and I found results saying dbus-launch is contained within startxfce4.

[Solved] "slim: failed to execute login command" after awesomewm updat

Hi,

If i use the shipped efault rc.lua it works fine, can someone help me to figure out whats wrong with my rc.lua?
