Re: What does your desktop look like?
I'm trying out sway.
Empty wallpaper:
Browser:
Cmus and ranger:
Setup is simple sway with multimedia keybindings, cmus, mpv, ranger, grim for screenshots and of course my favorite editor....nano! Swaybar font is Dejavu Sans 10.
I have full GNOME, as well. This is Sid with enabled experimental repo just for sway (I hope not for long).

Re: What does your desktop look like?
I fixed up my waybar a bit. Here is the new look:
Also, I added tiny gaps and disabled window borders. Windows on the image are in float mode to expose the wallpaper.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Finally got around to packaging a custom version of dwm 6.2:
It has the attachaside patch, a slightly taller panel and my own config.def.h patch with a scheme to match the Greybird GTK theme

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Debian buster booting with OpenRC (using sysvinit as PID1):
All I had to do to get the graphical desktop working was add my user to the input group
The systemd-shim package is not installed (nor is it available for buster or sid).
Debian buster now has elogind (thanks to the Devuan developers) so udev is the only thing left using libsystemd0:
Perhaps eudev will become available in sid soon and remove this requirement.

My grey hair is getting matted? What do you mean by "input group?" Being in a user group isn't enough?Head_on_a_Stick wrote:All I had to do to get the graphical desktop working was add my user to the input group
I'm glad you succeeded with OpenRC in Buster. Yes, elogind and eudev should help eventually.

# adduser $user input
I'm pretty sure that's a security risk though because the input group allows that user to listen to the keyboard inputs of other users.
Before my user was added to that group the keyboard & touchpad didn't work if the box was booted with sysvinit.
The console session still wasn't working properly though.

Thanks; I didn't know it existed. Here it is.
input /dev/input/event[0-9]*, /dev/input/mouse[0-9]* Access to input devices. Introduced in systemd 215 [2].

^ Nice!
You may want to try fiddling with the letterSpace option in urxvt, your terminal font looks a little stretched.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
Testing the RC1 installer again, went for the full GNOME this time:
That system is nicely contained within a btrfs subvolume shared with another subvolume (on the same partition) holding my Alpine Linux system.
The installer doesn't support subvolumes (AFAIK) so I had to use QEMU instead, quick HowTo:
First create a raw disk image:
Use QEMU and the RC1 installer on the image then mount it:
And finally rsync the contents from /mnt/ to the subvolume.
Remember to update /etc/fstab afterwards and also install the btrfs-progs package when the new system is booted to add the kernel modules to the initramfs image.

^Yeah, GNOME is finally great on Debian. I just stick to stock Adwaita theme and icons, they look modern.

I like the theme but I can't stand the icons, Faba is good though (IMO).Wheelerof4te wrote:I just stick to stock Adwaita theme and icons, they look modern.
Anyway, Night Light scrot to keep this on-topic:

Re: What does your desktop look like?
That is nice, looks good.
Below, to me this is really nice, I like it:
I know, with VM 's quite often a system and programs will run a little slow, that is to be
expected, so of course on real hardware everything usually seems better.
But, I found it interesting, on the other VM, also Debian Buster, even OpenBox responded slower then it would on bare metal, not much , but a little. So any way, on this one I decided to try "fluxbox", have not used it in years. I was happy and surprised to see it is "snappy", quick to respond, and seems to be ideal for on a VM.

Playing a bit with Icewm. I found a handy script for mpc (command-line tool to interface MPD)
