CGreen
A semi-transparent Cinnamon theme, with wallpaper + Firefox extra, Conky and Plank's theme'. Inspired by the CBlack theme (author: cloweling).
If you want a panel that is not transparent, modify the line 231
of the file ~/.themes/CGreen/cinnamon/cinnamon.css
.
For example: background-color: rgba(53, 57, 69, 0.50
); . A value of 0
is equivalent to total transparency and 1
is totally opaque. Restart Cinnamon (Ctrl+Alt+Esc) for immediate modification.
If the theme's font is too small, you can modify Cinnamon's settings:
System settings>Accessibility>Display>Large text
or/andSystem settings>Font selection
or/andSystem settings>Font settings>Text scaling factor
Don't hesitate to bring up inconsistencies in the theme or the extras here.
Wallpaper
It is located in the directory ~/.themes/CGreen/cinnamon/Wallpaper.png
.
Firefox extra
This is a css file that changes the color of the address bar according to the security of a site:
Just copy the file ~/.themes/CGreen/cinnamon/userChrome.css
and paste it into ~/.mozilla/firefox/YOUR_PROFILE/chrome/
. If the chrome
directory is not present in your profile, you will need to create it.
From Firefox 69 and after:
You must type about:config
in the address bar and then modify the value toolkit.legacyUserProfileCustomizations.stylesheets
by double-clicking on it to switch it to TRUE
.
From Firefox 77 and after:
You need to reinstall the userChrome.css
file in the Firefox profile.
Without this modifications, the extra doesn't work.
Conky
-
Install the
conky
orconky-all
package, depending on the GNU/Linux distribution.curl
must already be present, if it isn't, you should install it as well. -
Download the Brizel font here, then unzip into
~/.local/share/fonts
. Thefc-cache -f -v
command may be needed to update the fonts. - Copy the file located in
~/.themes/CGreen/cinnamon/TimeFull
and paste it into~/.conky
(these are hidden folders: Ctrl+h to show them). You must also allow the file to run with the commandchmod 750 ~/.conky/TimeFull
. More informations can be found at the beginning of the file.
Prevent your conky from flickering
- Increase the update interval in the
TimeFull
file.
If this is not enough:
- Check that the
dbe
module is loaded with thegrep LoadModule /var/log/Xorg.0.log
command If the module is not present, - Create the file
/etc/X11/xorg.conf.d/01-conky.conf
and add
Section "Module
Load "dbe
EndSection
- If you have the
/etc/X11/xorg.conf
file, don't create the previous file but look for theSection "Module"
line, then add after that lineLoad "dbe"
. - Then restart X (control+alt+backspace).
Plank's theme
- Copy the file
~/.theme/CGreen/cinnamon/dock.theme
to~/.local/share/plank/themes/CGreen/
. - I recommend the following settings:
