OpenBSD and MATE
I'm happily running OpenBSD 6.5 on my Lenovo T410 Thinkpad with the MATE desktop. All is well. I found this mini tutorial on the Internet and it works well enough for my needs with some modifications. I use .xsession instead of .xinitrc.
https://wiki.mate-desktop.org/download With XFCE you're able to issue a few commands to pull in the entire desktop, that is: Code:
doas pkg_add xfce xfce-extras George

Sorry to sow confusion. It was unintended. That code block I posted above is an excerpt from the port Makefile for the two meta packages "mate" and "mate-extras". Those aren't commands, those are environment variable assignments inside the Makefile.
You don't have to wait for 6.6. Just # pkg_add mate-extras . Really.

You're getting there. Soon you'll discover keyboard-centric tiling window managers and your conversion to the dark side will be complete.

For example: vim/gvim Editor mutt Email with gvim editor. vimb Webkitgtk4 browser. Across the board, ":" will enter modes and escape the mode with "Esc". "/: will search in all. My application menus have swollen to the point that I'm less motivated to manually configure. x11/jgmenu works with every WM I've tried. It will take keyboard input for application searching and cursor key navigation. In OpenBox, the "menu" key can be configured to bring up jgmenu.. |
