Created page with "= I3 window manager = ---- == Install i3wm == <pre> sudo apt-get install i3 suckless-tools </pre> ---- == Configure i3wm as default env == * A graphic login managers li..."

New page

= I3 window manager =

----

== Install i3wm ==

<pre>
sudo apt-get install i3 suckless-tools
</pre>

----

== Configure i3wm as default env ==

* A graphic login managers like [[slim]] (or xdm, lightdm, etc) can be used. They will start your session as defined in ~/.xsession file.

So, to start i3 as default window manager:

<pre>
echo "exec i3 $@" > ~/.xsession
chmod 750 ~/.xsession
</pre>

However, a more complete configurantion can setup keyboard layout, wireless, bluetooth and audio tray icons, defines touchpad settings, display a background and so on, like in the follow example:

<pre>
source ~/.bashrc

bash -c "
sleep 5s # start after X
#
# X Settings
setxkbmap br, it, us # keyboard layout
xset -b # disable pc speaker bell
# enabling MAC touchpad
synclient\
VertTwoFingerScroll=1 HorizTwoFingerScroll=1\
TapButton1=1 TapButton2=3 TapButton3=2
#
# Monitor
nice -10 conky &
#
# applets
nm-applet & # wireless gnome applet
#wicd-client -t & # wireless alternative applet
blueman-applet & # bluetooth applet
pasystray &
#
# Background
feh --bg-scale /home/shared/graphics/backgrounds/i3wm\ 800x600.png
" &
#
# finally, the X manager
exec i3 $@
</pre>
