there is also some minor projects created for JWM there also
My Webpage |
I just tried to install some of the themes on this website, but when trying to untar the package I get a 'this doesn't look like a tar file' error and it won't go any further, had anybody the same problem? which steps should I foolow to solve this?
Thanks in advance. |
what was the command you used? the correct command would be
| Code Sample | | tar -jxvf <theme_name> |
the packages are in a bzip2 compression is if not un compressed ( the -j flag in tar) then you will get that error everytime. or if you want to you can uncompress and untar in different steps.
| Code Sample | | bunzip2 <themename> |
| Code Sample | | tar -xvf <themename> |
either solution will do.
i hope this works... if it doesn't let me know which theme you had problems with and i will attempt to debug and fix.
