Of course each one of us has different preferences/needs. Clearlooks-Phenix-purpy has no rendering issues on my Devuan XFCE. I have not yet found another theme that doesn't have more problems than it's worth to try to fix. I suspect emninger's issues are due to the WM he's using. If anyone following this thread has an interest in the warts that I found for both Vertex and OSX-Breeze (I'm sure there are more) in about 5 minutes, you can download these screenies: http://www.saynotogmos.org/ss/screenies.zip Of course the landscape is always changing and undoubtedly the future will bring challenges that will be harder to work around (more SNS and unneeded complexity). golinux > > Cheers, > > Aitor. _______________________________________________ Dng mailing list [email protected] https://mailinglists.dyne.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dng
