Solution: mkdir ~/.config/gtk-3.0 folder touch ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini then try setting the global switch on and reboot. – after that, your settings.ini should look like this, and you should have the global dark theme activated: [Settings] gtk-application-prefer-dark-theme=1

Yesterday i did the first native tests (before that, i’ve been testing inside a parallels virtual machine). Surprisingly, both Elementary OS “Freya” as well as kali 2.0 seem to be working pretty well on my mid-2012 macbook pro out of the box. trackpad, graphics, wlan, screen + keyboard brightness, audio … all working out of […]

Unfortunately, Agilebits (the creator of 1Password) are not offering a linux version of their password storage tool: 1password a couple of years ago, we have switched from KeePassX (OSX) to 1Password because of the better […]

Problem 1: Mails die PGP verschlüsselt via POP3 empfangen wurden, sind lokal nicht durchsuchbar. – Das ist suboptimal. Lösungsansatz: permanent lokal entschlüsseln. Mir persönlich reicht das, da ich mit PGP nur den Mailtransfer absichern möchte. Da ich nicht alle meine Emails auf meinem Server liegen haben möchte, nutze ich POP3 statt IMAP. Lokal auf meinem […]

After having some great years with OSX since 2007 and iOS soon after that, it becomes time to say good bye. Why? – We’re experiencing more and more problems. In 2014, we got really mad about Apple’s ridiculous AppStore policies, claiming that our e-learning app was useless (as opposed to Flappybird!), just because it loaded […]
