Hy, first sorry for my English !
here’s my fvwm desktop :
FEATURES :
Normally, all the menu is generated by a script (called ~/.fvwm/scripts/BuildMenu.sh).
A ‘admin’ menu contain all application must be launched as root.
And it’s a menu with all services. Like that :
When fvwm is launch, a screen called ‘Fvwm’ start (command screen -S Fvwm).
Then, a xterm is swallowed and reattach on the Fvwm screen.
And when you want to launch a service by the menu, the command is send to the screen, so you just put your passord…
The xterm can also used normally, for launching a command without have a 15th term on your desktop \o/
There is also a little music player using mpd and mpc on the dock.
You can also configures somes options (like your term, your resolution etc) with a zenity script who can be launched from the menu :
I made somes other features, but it’s too long to speak about in English :/
Here’s the config ]http://fvwm.tuxfamily.org/config/philux/[/url]
Sorry, the README file is in french…
first, install somes dependancies :
fvwm imagemagik xterm screen mpd mpc conky zenity hsetroot (put the command you want before, emerge -av, apt-get install …)
untar the archive into your ~ directory, and rename the directory fvwm in .fvwm or make a link :
ln -s fvwm .fvwm
I suggest you to launch the script ‘preferences’ for the first time
