• xfce4-power-manager XFCE4's power manager is excellent and a great way of dealing with sleep, monitor timeout, and other power management features.

Arch-Based Installs

Start lxappearance to active the icon theme and GTK theme Note: for cursor theme, edit ~/.icons/default/index.theme and ~/.config/gtk3-0/settings.ini, for the change to also show up in applications run as root, copy the 2 files over to their respective place in /root.
