You should give https://regolith-linux.org/ https://regolith-linux.org/ a try. It's a Ubuntu based distro with i3 as WM. They have polished a few things here and there so you have icons for WiFi and easy access to settings.
- cptnapalm 6y agoJust used the PPA. Looks very nice. Has some very nice defaults. Super-Shift-? to get the keybinds was a great idea. I did hit one snag: I can't figure out how to run any actual programs. With the remapping of Super-d to pull up display settings, I am not seeing anything that will pop up an equivalent to dmenu.
- nurbel 6y agoit should be on super-space. and super-enter creates an new terminal.
- cptnapalm 6y agoI saw that on the web page. All I needed to know, minus how to get the bar on the top. The Action|Keybinding menu that comes up on first launch is simply too tall to fit on my laptop screen; the most important section Launch is off screen if I don't close several of the others. All in all, though, I'm very impressed with it.
- reachtarunhere 6y agoGlad that your enjoying it. Just add these lines to ~/.config/i3/config and reset. That should get the bar on the top. # Start i3bar to display a workspace bar bar { position top status_command i3status }
