Hello, Thank you so much for commenting ! :) You 'may' be able to download the emerald themes package from the AUR. However, they're marked out of date, but still might work. That way you can get a different effect for the border. Arch being a rolling release can be prone to breakage with some packages. The ones in the AUR are not officially supported -- so use at your own risk. Therefore something like Debian probably wouldn't have all the latest packages ; i.e. gimp 2.8.6 -- continued...

Hi dan , I have three questions , how can i change the red window border at 0:24 it is ugly for me , also i just wonder how can arch Linux be a stable distro if they use the latest packages ? i'm confusing now about what does stable means? in other words What is the difference in stability between debian and arch , last Q: what if there is a broken package can i restore the old one ? keep up the good work. Thank you.

Hi thanks to reply :) I meant Kwin, not Kwing, sorry about that, kwin I can say, it's compiz for kde, you could go see Matthew Moore on youtube, he did a video "Install Kwin 3D effects in XFCE " I try already and it's working fine for me, very interrsting that video. Cya ;)

Hi midfingr, it's a bit difference with xfce, I wonder if openbox will work with Kwing, cause I saw you have kdenlive install it, so you should have kdebase install it, right? It is cairo-dock you have or docky? Good tips your video ;) Thanks!

Hello, I'm not sure. I 'think' the bzr file has been modded to include some extras... Outside of that, 'Arch Unity' may have those additions; never had much luck with that however. Thank you for commenting ! :)

Hi, Apologies -- Kwing -- is that a game ?? kdebase wasn't installed with kdenlive, from what I could see at least. The dock is/was Avant-Window-Navigator Appreciate the comments. Thank you :)

Hello, Apologies for the late reply. I'm not sure of you can have kdm or gdm and the xinitrc file. One that may work with xinitrc is Slim. You'll need to edit the slim conf file (in /etc) to include all of those desktops. Although, either kdm or gdm may give you problems if disabled with slim enabled. Arch Wiki; search for Slim and follow the Multiple environments section. It may also shed some light on dealing with other log in managers.

Excellent tutorial! On my system, I have 3 different Desktop Environment to chose from. Gnome, KDE, and Xfce. I'm trying to get Mate to show up but it wont. The only way I can get the Mate UI is if i run exec mate-session from the terminal. Also, the .xinitrc file is in the /etc/skel directory... help??

I always enjoy your tutorials. you easy to listen to and a good teacher. maybe someday do a live install, I tried and got about 2/3 ok but then did something wrong. Will try again. I want to learn Arch

KDE. It allows me to select different desktop environments, but Mate is not there. I have Gnome, but it looks and feels kind of clunky. I added .xinitrc to the ~ directory to no avail.

Cinnamon feels a bit slow on my Arch setup, the menu is a little slow to show and the window transitions are sluggish.

MATE is the Gnome2 fork, Cinnamon forks Gnome3 Shell, to provide look and feel of Gnome2.

+sanjay kumar Hello,The file it's looking for (.xinitrc) has been moved to another directory. However, I found the quickest way to startx is to type: startxfce4To get that file into your directory, simple copy it ... :cp /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc ~/.xinitrc
