Arch Monochrome Desktop
Reader Linux. Jess introduced this monochrome Arch Linux desktop at our Desktop Showcase and we couldn’t help but show it. It’s clean, elegant, and easy to reproduce. Here’s how.
Linux Jess has only a couple of moving parts for this setup, none of which will be unfamiliar to Linux users. Here’s what you’ll need if you want the same look:
- City Shadows by Paul Scott on Flickr
- Conky , a lightweight system monitor for Linux systems
- This custom config Conky
- Sardi icons by Eric Dubois replace the default icon set
That’s all. Only a few parts, but the effect is really sharp and modern. If you like the look and have questions about how to make it yours, just head over to the Linux Jess kinja blog (link below) to ask your questions – and sing praises on your desktop too!
Do you have a beautiful and functional desktop to show off? Share it with us! Place it in a personal blog using Kinja tag DesktopShowcase or add it to our pool of Lifehacker Desktop Show and the Flickr Tell . Screenshots must be at least 1280×720 and include information about what you used, links to wallpapers, skins and themes, and any other important information. If your wonderful desktop catches our attention, you may be on our favorites!
