(for LMDE but it may help you). Also check the post after it since it seems to be from the Jupiter maintainer which wants to now if he should give support for LMDE (and maybe Debian consequently?).

jupiter is interesting, and the guy running it (fewt) is someone I've dealt with before. He is VERY responsive, to the point of releasing updates when I ran into issues with his former software on ubuntu. He quit that as I recall because he was very frustrated with ubuntu breaking his software every update.

I tried installing this...I'm not sure, but I think you may need a gnome environment for this one to work. It did not start on my box. I'll probably try again later.

@secipolla. Yeah I saw that. Fewt states on his blog that it is a Gnome thing. If Both of you guys go to my link below. You will see I documented my attempt.

@dolphin_oracle/ I think fewt wil find out from my post at EEEPC forums last night.

@rok - cool. I'm actually diagnosing some error messages in terminal...Looks like a mono package may be a dependency, but the name doesn't match between debian and ubuntu. I'm trying to install the"mono-complete" metapackage and see what happens.

Hey, little update. installing the"mono-complete" package seems to allow jupiter to operate. I had also installed gnome, which didn't help. The icon shows up in the system tray where you would expect. I set this up in a virtual box, so there are only so many of its options that work, but I think I'll set it up again on a fresh VB install and see if gnome is actually necessary. It may be using gnome notifications...

Hey, another little update....gnome doesn't seem to be required, so i installed mono-complete and jupiter and all was working.

One little note...this was still in a VB setup. I might give this a go on my test system later tonight.


***edit*** actually, the notifications are gnome...so without the gnome notification system, there are no on-screen displays.

Ok. To keep on Topic (Icewm LOL)

I'll start another thread for Jupiter if wished. I just mentioned it as the reason I found some new Icewm themes. Actually. I tripped out on Fewts warnings about Jupiter being alpha and a mention of memory leaks (using his app) at his blog. Back to Icewm.

Below is gold theme. What I did was change the start buttons on all LINTHERD themes.
None are all the same start buttons. I am no artist but I did Mtpaint on some .xpm icons.
Others are stock AntiX Icewm theme buttons. Use them or not. Here they are

I cleaned it a bit. The theme is the same but there was a useless"orig.default.theme" file and I fixed the title bar height in the flat.theme file.

New theme for my Icewm Desktop for AntiX 11 rc1 . Took a black Linthered theme and modified just a little for biker.

Taskbar start button is default Antix. If wanting another start button in taskbar just rename one of the A or B xpm in taskbar file and change default icewm.xpm to like icewmC.xpm.

Looks like





If new user. Go to previous posts on how to install new themes in icewm.

Happy Trails, Rok

You are going to have to do a bit of searching for it because I forget exactly where I got it from.
Below link will point you in the right direction though.

i did some searching on google, tried different key words and i finally found it. i downloaded it and set it as my wallpaper.
it was looking good exept for the big thing in the middle saying"ant theft water..." damn... __{{emoticon}}__
i searched further but without result, no way of getting it without that thing in the middle...
and then i found this:

now that too is a great wallpaper, if not better than the other! strange, i was searching for one thing and found something else but hey i'm not complaining with that beautiful piece of art on my screen.

thanks rokytnji for pointing me to this wallpaper and david mann art, i kinda like it.

Took me awhile booting up my other gear to find this sucka. So I zipped it up as #.

In case you still want it.


Edit: I guess I better start backing up all my previous wallpapers as they are getting hard to find I guess, __{{emoticon}}__
