Am currently uploading a new iso, mainly package updates. Had a little spare time this morning to make some changes to look and feel or ArchBang. Changed Openbox and Gtk3 themes. Colours in dunst, dmenu, conky and tint2. Also have made lxterminal a little less black 😉 Was tempted to add battery support to tint2 … New iso and some themes updates
I have possibly the best weekly downloads of ArchBang for years. Still amazes me that ArchBang is popular, even in these difficult times. ;-)Am going to test if ArchBang will install to a usb device/drive. Initial attempts kind of failed as I think my usb drive seems a little flaky so am going to try … Very high downloads of ArchBang… USB installs
Have been using DWM on and off for a about a month now. I still seem to drift back to the comfort of i3, purely as I am used to running it. Dwm does tile better than i3 out of the box. That said I added autotile (AUR) to give a more dwm like experience. … Messing with DWM

Another kernel update today so figured I would refresh iso image. Stay safe 😉

Hit super plus enter and a terminal will open. Network connection should run via ethernet without any issue. To get wifi … Project Vole update…
Am uploading a new iso with a new wallpaper. Limited at the moment so was only able to get a wallpaper locally with lock down measures in place here in the UK. Had over a thousand downloads in a week which given current world events is amazing. With extra time at home started looking at … New background and updates
I uploaded another testing version by mistake, am going to upload a beta version that does not have testing enabled. Now that 5.6 has hit main repos. Normal service will resume shortly 😉
Just a quick update to get iso up to date. Now running 5.6 kernel. Reading a lot about alacritty terminal and wondered if it lives up to its hype. Have run lxterminal for many years in ArchBang and maybe time for a change. Might add it to packages in an updated iso very soon. (need … Kernel 5.6 Iso
