I had to use this version. Adding the below to my ~/.xinitrc did nothing, and on the third reboot to check, since a logout and back in wasn't working, network-mangler ate my lunch, zeroing out what I had setup 2 months ago. So that got nuked, then rebuilt resolv.conf and interfaces from memory. I must be getting good at that, the first try worked. But what was eth6 before is now back to eth0. I figured I'd have to generate new sshfs keys, but it all worked. If there is a single piece of system software that will trigger my personal, no duplicates copy of a nearly 15 minute monolog of swearing in several languages, network-manager is it. I have never had it explained to me, why the hell it should tear down a perfectly working hostname based network. Under a 10-04 LTS install, it wasn't removeable, so all you could do is a root session of chattr +i those 2 files the instant they were written. Somehow it didn't have the chutzpah to squawk when it found they were read only, the only thing I ever found amusing about N-M. > or place this fragment in .xinitrc (all in one line) or any script > that gets executed when you log into your X session: > > xrdb -all -query|sed -e 's#[A-Z_]*BACKGROUND# gray90#' -e > 's#[A-Z_]*FOREGROUND# Black#' -e 's#[A-Z_]*HIGHLIGHT# White#' -e > 's#[A-Z_]*LOWLIGHT# Black#'|xrdb -merge > This had no effect.
