Hi All,

Just got my H-P Stream 13 (Intel Celeron - 2GB Memory - 32GB Flash Storage). Cost: US$246, Value: Priceless! It has 3 USB / 1 HDMI port(s), and a micro SD card slot. I'll be putting in a 32Gb card for extra storage.

Fantastic streaming video / audio quality. UBUNTU 15.10 helped me overcome both the track pad / WiFi issues out of the box. Still working on some things (see second screen shot) put on by the boys / girls from M$. Once those issues get addressed I'll be going with another (Debian / UBUNTU OS e.g. Parrot OS, or Backbox.

IMHO, this machine is a Chromebook Killer, if not a MacBook Killer. Happy Holiday shopping!

cykodrone - That screenshot is priceless!

Resize in gimp I guess to fit your screen.

Just a simple Dell Laptop with AntiX Icewm on it. I left the keybinding shortcuts off of conky on this littler screen.





Just showing what I mean by shortcut keys in conky from my other AntiX installs.

Thank you.

It's been a while since I posted.

I've moved to LFS 7.9-Systemd. Openbox with tint2

^ Always nice to see another OpenBox user!

BunsenLabs - OpenBox - Tint2

Sector11: I'm surprised that openbox isn't as popular as it should be. It offers much more comprehensive support/features than many minimalist WM (like DWM), but without the bloat of a full WM (Even XFCE).

And of course Fluxbox falls into that small (no bloat) classification of WM's! Fluxbox and Arch...

I have to agree with you, kcirick. I installed CrunchBang in 2009 (an OpenBox, tint2, conky distro) and when it was discontinued in 2015 the community got together and -->> BunsenLabs. OpenBox may not be as 'noob' friendly as a full DE or even FluxBox as one has to build the menus. But once built, it's 'personal' and like you said: light.

@nixnut - FluxBox is nice too. But after 7 years with OB I'm not a big fan of "automatic" menus. Prefer building my own.

Like most things Linux - It's a choice.

Isn't as popular? Based on what? I think I see Openbox everywhere, dA, reddit, LQ, Google+ pretty frequently.

I was trying to recall the LQ members choice awards (2015). I thought OB wasn't the top in WM category, but it appears I was incorrect (1st by a small margin, with Fluxbox a close 2nd):

But, comparing these numbers with the DE category, looks like people prefer to use a full DE on their machines (OB vote count is comparable with Cinnamon/MATE which are both Gnome-2 derivatives)
http://www.linuxquestions.org/questi...ar-4175562713/

Still, I like to lurk on Arch BBS and there most of them tend to gravitate towards minimal WM, not much Openbox presence there. Arch community could be pretty biased though

that's a nice desktop.

openbox is vastly popular. and with good reason: it's up-to-date, it Just Works (tm), inetgrates into every modern desktop (environment), is rock solid and truly minimal(istic).
it still is the default wm for two DEs: LXDE and LXQt, so some of those DE votes go to openbox, too.

lol, yeah. if you haven't replaced all your gui utilities with dmenu, you're a loser.
if your windows have more than 1px borders, it's bloat.
if you don't use a tiler (or at least a dynamic wm) you're a hopeless noob.
but all those minimalists use a compositor.
(erm, of course i'm vastly exaggerating. but that sort of elitism definitely exists in certain corners of the linux community)
