laky install menulibre ( sudo eopkg it menulibre ), then launch. search for firefox, and change the icon as you want!

      Getta91 Thanks! I can't seem to find the icon I want, but its a nice tool nonetheless!

          laky You can also, get custom icons, Just find one on the net and 'choose icon from file'.


              Yesterday was my current install's 1 year anniversary 😁

                  h3o I love those wallpapers (that wallpaper?). Do you mind sharing where you found them, if you can?

                      Running Gnome Solus
                      Extensions used:
                      Activities Configurator
                      Autohide Battery (used because on laptop, I don't have this on my desktop)
                      Caffeine
                      Coverflow Alt-tab
                      Dash to Dock
                      GSConnect
                      OpenWeather
                      Transparent Panel (temporary test)
                      Unite (that is broken for some reason with firefox and libreoffice, idk why)
                      User Themes (as standard)

                      Appearance:
                      Application: Plata-Noir-Compact
                      Cursor: Vimix-cursors
                      Icons: Korla
                      Shell: Plata-Noir-Compact

                      Junglist What extensions are you using to get that look?

                        Stefen_Maxwell In order to have the Unite extension display app / titlebar contents on the top bar, you need to enable the app menu, you can do it in dconf-editor (in the screenshot). [sudo eopkg it dconf-editor]

                        Also, you need to have xprop installed [sudo eopkg it xprop]

                        My extensions:


                          I like mine clean and simple.


                          In addition to the the standard extensions to GNOME included from solus, I've also added in
                          Smart Transparent Topbar - so top panel switches between transparent and opaque depending on whether windows are maxed or not.
                          KStatusNotifierItem/AppIndicator Support - Replaced TopIcons with this for smoother integration of icons like Steam and Discord in the upper right system tray area.

                          I actually really love the budgie default plat-noir-compact and have been using that for the longest time like this:
                          <blockquote class="imgur-embed-pub" lang="en" data-id="a/2ryb5kE" data-context="false" ><a href="//imgur.com/a/2ryb5kE"></a></blockquote><script async src="//s.imgur.com/min/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

                          but I recently felt like mixing things up so I'm running with this now:
                          <blockquote class="imgur-embed-pub" lang="en" data-id="a/AzE0ImK" data-context="false" ><a href="//imgur.com/a/AzE0ImK"></a></blockquote><script async src="//s.imgur.com/min/embed.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

                          Although i really like the plata noir theme more, i am enjoying the colour co-ordination i have going on now.

                            If you just want the image to show up without the whole imgur shebang, you can embed it like this:

                            Lucien_Lachance Really nice, simple yet functional. I'm planning on building a new pc ,and I'm thinking about going with the Ryzen 7 3700x. How has the 3800x worked for you? I'll also get an AMD gpu. Which one is yours, and how is it?

                            Thanks!

                                3800x = fantastic
                                Sapphire Radeon RX 5700 XT Pulse = fantastic, the open source linux drivers are better than the proprietary nvidia drivers. i was worried it would struggle with games (windows) @ 3440x1440 but no problems at all, granted ive only played witcher 3 and fallout 4, both on ultra, with this monitor, but i get steady framerates between 75-100

                                  Take two:

                                    MOOP I'm owner of Ryzen 3600X and 5700XT. They work perfectly with Solus. Gaming is butter smooth at least titles with I play like Witcher series.

                                      Justin What happened with Gnome that forced you to switch to KDE/Qt? I am just asking out of curiosity.

                                          maveonair I asked that a feature be added (tray support) to a GNOME application. They closed the issue with tag Not GNOME.

                                          While it is a GNOME application most other desktops still have trays. Their reasoning is flawed and I am also sick of them removing features continuously without consideration of those using those features.

                                          They seem to only think within their own bubble of the GNOME ecosystem.

                                              Plus I've been following the Plasma news and it always gets me excited. You really don't see a lot of news about GNOME or anything exciting they're doing.

                                              Justin
                                              Pretty much my experience, they live in their own world. Which is fine, they're allowed to have their own vision for how the desktop should be.

                                              Problem is. Core feature exists, they remove it, users complain about feature being removed. Gnome says: that's what extensions are for. Which is a perfectly fine suggestion: IF their extensions system didn't suck ass. It has always been a buggy mess, every update breaks something and eventually this happens to an extension you use:

                                              I am sorry but I am going to take some distance with the development of this extension.

                                              It is motivated by several things.

                                              1. I have not used the extension myself recently. I use less and less extensions that use it. And among them, none of them breaks or looses functionality without the status icon.

                                              2. The Gnome project does not give a shit about it and made it public. They even don't point to this extension but to an outdated, unmaintained one. Besides, Ubuntu, after making a survey, also moves on with its own extension.

                                              3. Anyway, the API is dying. It will be dropped in the future with GTK updates. Documentation is sparse, so development requires considerable efforts for not much. As it is now, the API is also buggy and incomplete, so it is impossible to make a reliable extension or really enhance it. Of course, it will never be fixed.

                                              4. TopIcons-Plus then became a magnet for claims (and exigences) that would better be addressed to the Gnome project. People fail to understand that the extension depends on an API and is not capable / intended to fix Gnome-Shell device. It is extremely exhausting.

                                              5. The Gnome extension website is awful, as there is almost no maintainer there and validation takes sometimes weeks... Meanwhile, I get issues from disgrunted users...

                                              So to sum up, Push everything to an extension, tell users to use extensions, blame extension developers for things that are not their fault, kill the API required for the extensions to work.

                                              No, I'm not changing my workflow to fit you, I'll just use a DE that works the way I expect it to out of the box. Haven't looked back.
