:

Things I liked:
3 File managers
Quick Grab <--sweet

Broken:
Right-click - Debian - Settings - Desktop Preferences
Desktop Manager is not active. (maybe used by another WM??)

???:
Right-click - Debian - System & Utilities
Three ways to start Thunar that all looked the same to me.

Not found:
A way to change wallpaper (GUI)
Those s̶k̶u̶l̶l̶s̶ rocks are not for me.

More time to play with it tomorrow.

Now, what are you gunna do for an installer? wink

500-550 RAM for a desktop in use is good. Now, ask for help with the Debian Installer? ;P

Thank you so much for looking!

Nothing is Broken! smile

All of the (active) settings for Lilidog can be found under Utilities in the menu.
What you found are the settings if you use the pcmanfm desktop (for icons, wallpaper, etc).

If you would prefer to use icons on the desktop, enable __pcmanfm --desktop --profile__ in Lxsession autostart.

???:
Right-click - Debian - System & Utilities
Three ways to start Thunar that all looked the same to me.

Thunar is the default file manager and as such, will be opened under default names like "File Manager" from the Debian menu, which is populated automatically, or with the command

update-menus

in a terminal. Not really a Lilidog issue. The Debian menu is included as an extra only.

Not found:

Sorry you don't like the rocks.
Feh sets the wallpaper directly in lxsession autostart rather than pointing to ~/.fehbg.

After installation, you may want to change this to

~/.fehbg &

in lxsession autostart for customization purposes, as feh uses this file as default.

For changing the wallpaper afterwards, or for just a temporary change, you can simply right-click from the thunar menu to set the background from an image file. The current wallpapers on the iso are stored in /home/wallpaper.

Edit* I think I can change this to start from ~/.fehbg on startup now. I'll put it on the list.

Now, what are you gunna do for an installer?

The standard Debian installer is available on boot. I could add it directly to the live session as well. Sounds like maybe I should add it in? Do most people expect to find an installer in the live session?

Any help is appreciated. I don't even know what might be missing if anything, or how to theme the installer itself. Very much open to help here if you can:)

@johnraff? I haven't done a live-build in years.

In the meantime...

Okie dokie, New images up here: https://sourceforge.net/projects/lilido … /Releases/

Thanks to hhh and johnraff, I was able to get the installer themed, and b43 firmware added to the installer.

The theme for the graphical installer matches Lilidog now, but still needs some work on the logo to be sure.

Not sure if I have missed anything else concerning the installer or not.
