Hello

Recently, I changed my whole DE and theme and iconset, ...
I'm using 2 laptops(both X200). 1 with parabola, 1 with Trisquel.

My Parabola was KDE plasma 5 + breeze theme
My Tisquel was LXDE + Trisquel default theme

I start using i3-gaps(on my Parabola), so I started tweaking it. And I really like it.
After reading some posts here and on other forums, I found Adapta + Papirus.

On my parabola I can easily install it using this command.
> sudo pacman -S papirus-icon-theme adapta-gtk-theme

But for Trisquel... I need to add repo's

Papirus icon theme
> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:papirus/papirus
> sudo apt-get update
> sudo apt-get install papirus-icon-theme

Adapta theme
> sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tista/adapta
> sudo apt-get update
> sudo apt-get install adapta-gtk-theme

Papirus is ok, but the last command to install adapta-gtk-theme returns "Can't find package adapta-gtk-theme".

When I try to add the repository, I can see this in the logging.

* Drop Xenial support.

So I try to install it from the source https://github.com/adapta-project/adapta-gtk-theme#installation-from-git-source

I install all the required packages mentioned there, except sassc, which isn't available in Trisquel repos.
So installing from source, doesn't work...

Is there Trisquel users, who can help me install adapta-gtk-theme?

It looks like sassc wasn't added to Ubuntu until 18.04, so it won't be
included in Trisquel until Trisquel 9. However, Trisquel 8 appears to
have all of its dependencies[1] so you should be able to just install it
from a deb package.

$ wget http://mirrors.kernel.org/ubuntu/pool/universe/s/sassc/sassc_3.4.5-1_amd64.deb
$ sudo dpkg -i sassc_3.4.5-1_amd64.deb

Just running those command didn't work.

I will investigate in the evening, more about it.

One option I will try is compile it all from source[1][2].
And I also found this[3], will give it a try.

I have now Adapta Theme, I've used the steps provided on the askbuntu[1] website

Then followed the github page of adapta-gtk-theme[2]

That looks pretty sharp! https://raw.githubusercontent.com/adapta-project/adapta-github-resources/master/images/Materials.png

Let us know if you have any trouble with it.

Following the askbuntu url, I didn't had any trouble installing it.

I followed this tutorial[1][2][3] to install i3wm, he is using Arc(Dark) Theme with Moka icons and "System San Fransisco Font"[4]. And he is using FontAwesome for icons. Also installed Rofi.

I started to use the same build as he did in the tutorial, but I changed it with Adapta(-Nokto-Eta) with Papirus Icons and NotoSans Font. I Also use FontAwesome for icons and rofi.
I changed the Font from NotoSans to SanFransisco, I find it personally better fitting to Adapta. One Issue with that font is, I didn't find license on the github page...

Rofi in Trisquel doesn't have all modi's, like my setup on Parabola. In Parabola I'm using "rofi -show drun...", while "drun" isn't available for Trisquel(I'm searching how I can add it). So when using rofi, I don't see any application icons, which is also nice to have.

I forget to set the theme of Rofi to Adapta(so it is the basic theme).

UPDATE:

I ended up adding this ppa[1], after reading this post[2]

So now, I can reuse "rofi -show drun..." with icons :)

Very nice, the window and taskbar fonts and decorations are gorgeous.

How do you like using rofi? Do you use any other menu or launcher, or just that?

Thank you.
I'm new to rofi, the theming is done and I'm using the latest version from the ppa.
Until now, I like it, it's simple and fast.
Before rofi I was using albert[1] launcher. Which I also love to use.
It's easy to configure and has a gui. And also easy theme switcher. And has much more features then rofi(until now).
Why the switch? I don't know, I wanted to try rofi out, before chosing the one as default.

Edit: typo
