"the new theme gets lost when you change themes"
Yeah...I suppose I could have put it into ~/.fluxbox/styles, but that didn't cross my mind.
You can get it back with the 'SetStyle' command, added to your menu, keys, or typed into command dialog: "setstyle  /opt/fluxbox-0.9.11/share/fluxbox/styles/dsl-mik".
Or you can copy/link the file into ~/.fluxbox/styles to have it come up under styles in the menu.

"how about making menu alpha maybe 220-230 by default, just to add a subtle reminder that it's there?  Or is there an issue with older hardware"
That's the reason.  I don't know how much of a difference it makes, but I thought it would be best to have no transparency as the default just in case, particularly since it has become so easy to change through the menu.

"And cut the virtual desktops back down to 3 (currently 4, causes them to stack in two rows)."
Are you talking about the pager?  I had no idea, since I don't use a pager myself.  Next release will be 3 desktops (does anyone even regularly use 4 workspaces?).

Ho,Ho,HO !!! - Merry Christmas !

kernelsources.dsl - for building drivers , and other good things.

XFree86.dsl - READ INFO FILE BEFORE USING

Both are in the "testing" section of the repository...  enjoy
( refresh your browser cache if it does not show in the list
   - usually shift-refresh does it )

You can always bootup a knoppix 5-17-2004 CD ,
and copy the XF86Config file it creates to get you started..

Seasons Greetings and Merry Christmas

actually, I believe that the latest Knoppix uses the same version of Xfree, so the XF86Config from it should work as well.

I'd test it from Live-CD first though.

They say if you play a Microsoft CD backwards, you hear satanic messages. That's nothing, cause if you play it forwards, it installs Windows.
