Not sure what you mean by setting a dark theme for Xorg, but AFAIK,
you don't theme Xorg, but rather your {window manager (in your case
cwm), desktop environment, widget libraries (gtk, qt)}. I don't use
cwm, but a quick search for 'color' in cwmrc(5) should give you an
idea of what colors you can configure. Other than that, some X
client applications such as xterm can be configured through
~/.Xresources.
Regarding #2, no clue. Sorry.
Kind regards,

Dark theme in Xorg and trackpad
Hi list, # 1 Since a couple months ago I started using CWM, at first it was a little weird to use but now I find it hard to come back to fluxbox or I3, my favorite WMs...but (always one), I'd like to set Xorg (not GTK), in a dark theme, dunno if that's even possible...I've been a *BSD / linux user since '96-98... Never asked myself if that can be done... Any clue? # 2 I've have a Lenovo Ideapad 14W, which I use mainly to pentesting, It works flawessly with OpenBSD...X, suspend, network...everything...but (again), I can't get the trackpad to work...There is a 70-synaptics.conf under /usr/X11R6/share/X11/xorg.conf.d, but I'm not sure if it has any effect at all. Again, any clue to start working on it? Thnx!!! P. PS... Upgrade to 7.4 flawless...not a single problem and so far seems that general performance is even better than 7.3, amazing.
