#1 How to create a custom Linux GUI (Desktop) from scratch

Use a basic Linux base and install some packages to make a desktop however you want.  See my other videos on further customization! My Patreon : Patreon: doriandotslash
(CLICK \/ SHOW MORE \/ FOR A LIST OF COMMANDS!)

The base Ubuntu I installed is the Ubuntu MinimalCD.  You can find the ISO here:
https://help.ubuntu.com/community/Ins...

To install all the packages I'm using "sudo apt install" and the packages I install, in the order I install them are:

lightdm
openbox-gnome-session
openbox
gnome-terminal
obmenu
gedit
tint2
docky
nitrogen
ubuntu-wallpapers
pcmanfm
lxappearance
xcompmgr
firefox
pavucontrol
volti
gconf-editor

The file you want to create/edit for openbox autostart commands is located at ~/.config/openbox/autostart.sh

The file you want to create/edit to automatically login is located at /etc/lightdm/lightdm.conf (Must be root to edit/create this file).

While this is "almost" from scratch, I have no intention of truly going completely from scratch, AKA, compiling the kernel etc. So many things go wrong! LOL
