Re: Trying to track down where the scrollbar is defined

I know if you download a plain Ubuntu Desktop distro, those blasted overlay scrollbars will be there. Personally, I never build a ubuntu-mini with those overlay scrollbars since they hardly ever work right and look absolutely terrible. If you have seen any of my works, you know i am into severe colo...

Re: Building LXDE Distro

Well, I did so much searching and would make many people's heads spin around and around. End result, I had to take a gamble something that sounded feasible would work. So, here it goes. In the file etc/pam.d/lxdm need to add the two following lines: session required pam_loginuid.so session required ...

Re: Building LXDE Distro

Even if I can get some web pages to understand how LXDM works, maybe can get all this fixed. Is not a good sign when someone vastly intelligent as yourself is lost on this issue. I know I write a lot and may not be real professional at points, perhaps hard to understand. Been at building systems for...

Re: Building LXDE Distro

Am still here and hoping someone out there will help???? That is if anyone actually reads these and is willing to answer??? I am in a fix as far as display managers are concerned. I have been through lightdm, nodm, sddm and lxdm after uninstalling gdm and gnome-session. Basically, without gdm I am l...

Re: Building LXDE Distro

So far looks as if I am solving my own problems! Next problem up to bat was having ugly Windows 95 looks on some KDE programs and likewise. For those that hate that look and want your theme to conform to what you have in your gtk simply open up synaptic and search for qt4-qtconfig or apt-get install...

Re: Building LXDE Distro

Just an update to let any others know who may be considering building one also. I have fixed the issue about synaptic not working on LXDE along with a few others. Part of the problem is I also have gnome-policykit in there since I figured was needed due to this OS containing a great percentage of gn...

Re: LXDE Wallpaper

Nice wallpapers! I messed with a few of the included ones, looking to achieve more of a depth. I am constantly reaching to achieve more depth to the LXDE desktop to make it look more interesting since I feel it is severely interesting! I also did the same for the logout menu and will say is quite co...

Building LXDE Distro

Few months back, I wrote about leaving Gnome and creating a system based on LXDE. Currently am working on one that is very nice, but it does not completely cut the cord from Gnome. Before I got to present state this distro is in, I ran into permission problems. System would boot in a flash, but refu...

Am converting to LXDE!

For the longest time I have admired the LXDE desktop and have always had it installed with quite a few others. My main problem that I was not using LXDE all the time was it looked so bland! So, I would find myself using LXDE desktop for maybe about an hour before the looks just got to me and then wo...
