To change background just replace background.jpg,
to display conky with slimlock, copy .conkyrcslim

How to actually run the conky with slim? If I want to use my own conky setup...

codewalkertse Featured By Owner Dec 10, 2012

I wanna ask same question.

CAUriel Featured By Owner Dec 23, 2011

Tried slimlocky in Arch + xfce, but conky does not show up over slimlock, instead it shows up on the desktop, and stays there even after I unlock the screen. Any ideas?

Bulh0sa Featured By Owner Dec 19, 2011

Work in ubuntu 11.10 ?

Is it possible to get conky with slim?

FaithFX Featured By Owner Nov 19, 2011 Hobbyist

i have ubuntu 11.10 now dual with win7 and this look so awesome, i will try it,too! but i have a lot of problems with ubuntu s:

BigRZA Featured By Owner Nov 19, 2011

be careful!!!
it seems SLIM has some problems with never versions of ubuntu.
I'm using it with 10.10 and it runs without problems.

FaithFX Featured By Owner Nov 19, 2011 Hobbyist

oooh okay, thanks for warning, so i shouldn't try to install it? s:

BigRZA Featured By Owner Nov 19, 2011

You can install and try it. If its not working and you only get a console try this to get lightdm back:

press ctrl-alt-F1 and login with your username and pass
after that type> sudo dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
and chose lightdm.
After a reboot, you should see the lightdm greeter.

Question here

I got a problem. Im running Ubuntu 10.10. I apt-get slim, after reboot I trie to log in but it gives me error saying cant execute login command or something like. This only occurs if I fill in the propper login name and password

Any suggestions ?

BigRZA Featured By Owner Nov 1, 2011

open slim.conf
$ gksu gedit /etc/slim.conf

search (ctrl+f) for login_cmd

and replace the hole line with this
login_cmd exec /bin/bash -login /etc/X11/Xsession %session

if its still not working upload your hole slim.conf file to a pastebin and send me the link

lupoo Featured By Owner Nov 6, 2011

Worked

Thx for tut

I was trying to lock my screen on arch+xfce and nothing happens, the only screenlocker i have installed is slimlock, but it doesn't work, only from terminal. I tried to configure this file: /usr/bin/xflock4 , but i don't have any idea how to do it ... Do you have any sugestion?? Thanks

BigRZA Featured By Owner Oct 29, 2011

slimlock doesnt lock the screen automatically, you need another app for this.
I am using xautolock.
i made an autostart entry like this: xautolock -locker slimlocky -time 60

This will lock your screen after 60 minutes.

netonardin Featured By Owner Oct 31, 2011

Sorry, i think i didn't specify my question, the problem is: When i press the botton lockscreen nothing happens, i don't want "auto-lock".

BigRZA Featured By Owner Oct 31, 2011

Ah ok but i dont use xfce.
if you could upload /usr/bin/xflock4 i could loock into it

I approve of the German. ^_^

BigRZA Featured By Owner Oct 29, 2011

Danke schön

Dobbie03 Featured By Owner Oct 26, 2011 Hobbyist Interface Designer

This. Is. Awesome.

Using it now, wish I could take a screenshot of it to show it off.

BigRZA Featured By Owner Oct 27, 2011

You can take screenshots with slim and slimlock with F11
look in slim.conf for:
screenshot_cmd import -window root /slim.png

perhaps you could also use scrot or something but im not sure

Dobbie03 Featured By Owner Oct 27, 2011 Hobbyist Interface Designer

Cool thank you.

kjeksomanen Featured By Owner Oct 26, 2011

Which Distro/WM/DE will this work with?

BigRZA Featured By Owner Oct 26, 2011

SLiM is a Desktop-independent graphical login manager for X11 so it should work on pretty much everything. Im using it with ubuntu 10.10

kjeksomanen Featured By Owner Oct 26, 2011

Oh, neat, didn't know that the name was SliM

Using Arch Linux w/KDE 4.7, so I guess there's something out there.

princefrog91 Featured By Owner May 14, 2013

netonardin Featured By Owner Oct 26, 2011
