[icewm-themes] Call For Votes
Hello dear Debian users, I am going to revise the current icewm-themes package, since in my opinion there should be some new cool themes (that user get from icewm.themes.org anyways), and on the other hand we could drop seldom used themes to make place for the new ones. To make the best decision, I would like to have something I could count, so I ask you (users) to vote for the themes that you would like most and that should remain in the package. How to vote?

Re: changing icewm themes
Sorry for getting back in touch so late and, of course, thank you for replying to my mail. Is IceWM actually running ?? Yes it is. The problem is this. The very first time that I started X, it started with icewm as this was the only window manager that I had installed. The default theme was warp3 but I wanted to change it. When I did change it to 'aesthetec', or something else, I noticed (hard not to) that when I started xterm I was unable to type anything in the xterm window. In short icewm is running but under some themes it doesn't run xterm properly. What you describe is similar to what happens if you run X without a window manager. Do you have an X mouse cursor ?? Does it disappear when you enter your xterm ?? You can actually type in the term, but as you say, you don't see the cursor to realize that you can. If you can, type the executable for IceWM and hit enter. If you start X via startx, does your ~/.xinitrc file have the command to start up IceWM ??

changing icewm themes
Hello all. I recently installed X window and decided that I would use icewm as the window manager. My problem is that when I change the theme from the default to something else I am no longer able to get a cursor in the xterm window - that is I am no longer able to type anything there. I just wonder if anyone else has had this problem, has any idea what the problem could be or any troubleshooting suggestions? TIA T:Irvine

Icewm forgets the theme I've set up. When I exit and start again it start with the default theme. How to fix it? Thanks Attila -- -- - Mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; Debian 2.2 Linux / 2.2.13 / exim- - Get my PGP key: gpg --keyserver keys.pgp.com --recv-key 0x2cc33acb -

The way that I know of is to edit your ~/.icewm/preferences file to your liking. There might be a gui program out there, but I don't know of one. Here's the relevant part of mine: Theme=BrushedMetal/truetype.theme Cheers, Chris Gray -- pick, pack, pock, puck: like drops of water in a fountain falling softly in the brimming bowl.
