Description Arch Linux, 16 September.

My Arch Linux fresh install. Just made a new setup with pure systemd. Even thought I REALLY liked my configs on rc.conf, I decided to upgrade it. For users interested, I used this guide .

As always, it's XFCE 4.10, only that this time I'm aiming to a pure XFCE system: No conky, Docky or other programs.

The main-menu follows the same model that my latest screenshot , but now I made a custom menu for each category (instead of using the launcher app).

The dock on bottom is a simple xfce4-panel.

The GTK Suite (GTK Theme, XFWM4) is still Zukitwo by lassekongo83 , and icons are Faience-Azur by tiheum .

At last, here's the login/lock screen .

Cheers!

That's Mole Antonelliana (Torino, Italy for the curious), not Monte.
Great shot.

Yes, it is.

The author probably swapped the letters while renaming the file. Thank you!

Very nice. What kind of Gmail notifier is on the screenshoot?

Thanks .
It's the default xfce4-mailwatch-plugin applet. You can set a custom action for every new message (in my case, I used a simple notify-send).

i like that panel and menu very, very, very much. the rest of the scrot, too
XFCE could do with a better file manager, otherwise it's a pretty perfect lighter DE. Are there still styling issues for GTK3 apps? I was installing it some months back on somebody's machine and gedit and some other programs looked like they came straight outta redmond circa 1995

Thanks!

There's no problem at all. The only thing you need is to use themes that support GTK3.
