Following the request of our favorite Troll: Courage, I write this article to show you how to install and configure themes in SLiM. Something really easy.
Installing themes.
In Archlinux:
# pacman -S slim-themes archlinux-themes-slim
On Debian:
It already brings some by default, although we can find others here and I even made a couple of them myself a long time ago: Topic 1 y Topic 2. These themes are downloaded, unzipped and put into / usr / share / slim / themes.
To test the themes without having to close the session, we open a terminal and write:
slim -p /usr/share/slim/themes/<nombre de la carpeta del tema>
Ok I already downloaded it and tried it. How do I put it in SLiM?
It is very simple, to do that we open a terminal and using our favorite editor, we edit the file /etc/slim.conf:
$ sudo nano /etc/slim.conf
Inside this file we look for the line:
# current theme, use comma separated list to specify a set to
randomly choose from
current_theme default
And we replace default o the name that is, with the name of the folder that contains the theme we want to use.
