And fired it up
When I chose to keep the existing partitions it failed so I had to restart. This could have been due to the repos in the university of Erlangen too.
So on the next effort I chose to partition from scratch and use the entire disk. And I picked another repo.
This went painlessly so I clicked my way through chose repos to add language etc. no problem. I could finally log in to a nice KDE
I had picked nonfree and tainted repos so everything worked out of the box.
I installed nano and put myself in the sudoers like this:
Code: Select all
EDITOR=nano visudo
Then I installed systemd-tools and checked out the boot.
[viking@localhost ~]$ systemd-analyze blame
Shorewall is the biggest sinner here too but 5 sec is acceptable. So far it has been a pretty painless experience worthy of a newbie.
Now I will set up openbox again.....
Nitrogen is not there so I have to use feh - that is ok.
openbox-menu is not there so the menu does not reflect what is on my system.
Cairo-dock is one big bug and cairo-dock -c does only fire up the control panel - no dock (strangely the exact same bug is in Mandirva).
Going for docky...
And that went just fine So there is no need for cairo-dock.
I get the same problem as with cairo-dock - that it also autostarts in KDE and that is anoying so i have to remove if from autostart here
Code: Select all
rm ~/.config/autostart/docky.desktop
That takes care of the KDE side of things To make it autostart in the pure openbox environment we simply add
docky % at the botom of ~/.config/openbox/autostart
