|
hi
yesterday i emerged enlightenment, but didn't like it that much
today i emerged fluxbox, runs great !
is the best wm i' ever used
now i found a proggy called : idesk ; to put icons on your desktop (e.a. fluxbox desk )
now, after instal, it says that i have to refer to http://idesk.timmfin.net
but, that site doesn't open at all.
could anyone tell me how to configure idesk basicly ?
thx

Sorry to kinda hijack this thread, but I have idesk up and running on xfce4. Beautiful...
Was just wondering how to -- refresh, for lack of a better term -- once I've added an icon. Do I just run idesk& again or do I have to kill and restart?
Thanks. |

creat .ideskrc in home directory containing following, (customize to your needs)
| Code: | table Config
FontName: tahoma
FontSize: 8
FontColor: #ffffff
Locked: false
Transparency: 175
Shadow: true
ShadowColor: #000000
ShadowX: 1
ShadowY: 2
Bold: true
ClickDelay: 300
IconSnap: true
SnapWidth: 55
SnapHeight: 100
SnapOrigin: BottomRight
SnapShadow: true
SnapShadowTrans: 200
CaptionOnHover: true
end
table Actions
Lock: control right doubleClk
Reload: middle doubleClk
Drag: left hold
EndDrag: left singleClk
Execute[0]: left doubleClk
Execute[1]: right doubleClk
end
|
then creat a directory called ~/.idesktop and in that directory make .ink files which contian text as follows
for example my firefix.ink file
| Code: | table Icon
Caption: Firefox
Icon: /usr/share/pixmaps/firefox-icon.png
X: 636
Y: 42
Command[0]: firefox
end
|
then restart fluxbox and it should get you icons. |
