[SOLVED] bunsenlabs components overview

Hello,

Currently my hardware is only supported by kernel 4.19, so I'm using Buster for the moment.

I was wondering where I can get an overview of the different components used in BL (like panel, file manager, monitor, terminal, power manager, ... ) so I can install them on my debian system to resemble BL. For example, which file manager is used in BL, ...

thx

Hi chrisdb,
all our packages' code is here: https://github.com/BunsenLabs
And the current install list is in the metapackage:
https://github.com/BunsenLabs/bunsen-me … an/control
and in the netinstall script:
https://github.com/BunsenLabs/bunsen-ne … kgs-norecs
https://github.com/BunsenLabs/bunsen-ne … /pkgs-recs
All the above are for the upcoming Lithium release and might see some changes yet. You can find the current lists in the equivalent "helium" branches.

Re: [SOLVED] bunsenlabs components overview

Short list of essential components for those interested...

Login manager and lock screen: lightdm, lightdm-gtk-greeter, light-locker

Window manager: openbox

Panel: tint2

Compositor: compton

Power management and backlight settings: xfce4-power-manager

Notifications: xfce4-notifyd

Screen resolution: arandr

Wallpaper: nitrogen (feh as a backup)

Desktop system info: conky

System tray icons: nm-applet, pnmixer, clipit (and xfce4-power-manager)

Sound: pulseaudio and pavucontrol

After that, we use thunar for file management and firefox for a browser. Common terminals include terminator, lxterminal and rxvt-unicode. Common text editors include geany and mousepad. Common media players include vlc, mpv and audacious. Common image viewers include mirage and gpicview.

helium uses the Openbox root (right-click) menu but lithium will use jgmenu by default.

xset and synclient handle keyboard and touchpad inputs, xbindkeys will be more prominent in lithium.

Sorry if I've forgotten anything!
