I'm having trouble installing dropbox. I've downloaded and extracted it my hardrive, but these instructions are confusing...
http://crunchbanglinux.org/wiki/howto/h … up_dropbox

is there a simple command like apt-get install thunar-dropbox or something like that to install it?

I running #! 11 20130119

I can use Amarok instead, but Clementine is a good radio streaming player and a better design.

I've tried to install Clementine music player, but there are some broken packages.

davek@crunchbang:~$ sudo apt-get install clementine
[sudo] password for davek:

Is there a way to get it to install?

Thank you smile

Thanks for the advice.

As long as I can copy images into the wallpaper folder, then they show up on the list. That's fine with me.

problem solved. smile

vinoman · Help & Support (Stable)

Got it. Thanks.

but I wonder why the right-click set as wallpaper function doesn't work. Do you think its a bug in the system?

R-click the image in the folder - there should be a menu option "Set as wallpaper" (There is in Waldorf anyway )

I go to it and open image file, but it doesn't populate the wallpaper window in Nitrogen. I sometimes works and sometimes it doesn't. Can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. As much as I like Crunchbang, adding a wallpaper is very frustrating. the preference button doesn't apply the file that you want to select the image from. Is Nitrogen buggy?

I did that (stadler) but nothing changes.

What file do I edit to change the color of the text and numbers in the date on the taskbar?

Thanks

I've turned on the compositing to see how it works and it adds a little depth to the windows, but when I reboot it goes away. How do you keep it on?

I'm back using #! again and I can't remember what the name of the fonts on the desktop are called to change the color. what do they call the text of the system info and shorcuts?

hi vinoman, welcome to the community. with 'panel', do you mean tint2? so the 'taskbar'? because then you can just go to the Right-click menu > Settings > Tint2 > Edit config file
read up on the syntax online and find out how to change your text color.

Yes, I found the hex code and changed to black. Now I can see the time.

Thank you smile

vinoman · Help & Support (Stable)

How do you change the text color on the panel? I've changed the conky color to black for a lighter background but the time/date text in the upper right hand corner is still gray and you can't see it. Is there a way to change that to black of other dark shade?

running #! 20111125 64bit. it runs GREAT!
