Setup

This configuration has been tested with Xubuntu 12.04.

To install the right (latest) version of i3, the dependencies, and create your machine-specific config file:

git clone [email protected]:jbohren/i3files.git ~/.i3
sudo .i3/bootstrap.bash
touch .i3/configs/$HOST.cfg

Usage

To run i3 via the wrapper script:

ZSH Users

.i3/i3.zsh

Bash Users

.i3/i3.bash

XFCE

To set i3 to autostart:

bootstrap_i3_xfce_autostart.bash

Build the panel plugin in panel into debian packages with checkinstall.

To get rid of xfdesktop:

  • session and startup
  • current session
    • quit xfdesktop

Design

This set of i3 config files and scripts enables the on-line generation of config files depending on the machine's hostname. These additional config files are stored in the configs directory.

To create a new machine-specific config, create a file called $HOST.cfg in the configs directory. These configuration options will be added in automatically to the autogenerated config file.

Notifications

Notifications are handled by dunst. To install the dunst config file dunstrc, run:

mkdir -p ~/.config/dunst
cd ~/.config/dunst
ln -s ~/.i3/dunstrc
