X and Fluxbox :: Problems installing new fluxbox themes!



Hi everyone.

I have downloaded some tar.bz theme-files but when im trying to unzip them they are containing my home directory (!) What can i do? I also have themes in tar.bz2 format how do i unzip them. TNX FOR HELP

themes obtained from the mydsl repository can be installed the same as any other extension.

Themes obtained elswhere *should* have a directory structure of "backgrounds" and "styles" only....no home directory included.  If there is a home you'd be best off manually extracting into their appropriate directories (/home/dsl/.fluxbox/styles and /home/dsl/.fluxbox/backgrounds)

tar.bz2 are extracted with tar and bunzip2:
"tar xjf filename" or "tar xf filename | bunzip2"
