# Alpine OPENBOX desktop setup: FF version
===========================================================
Alpine must be previously installed. For a WAYLAND desktop check [alpine-tutorial-desktop-wayland-try.md](alpine-tutorial-desktop-wayland-try.md).
For XFCE4 check [alpine-tutorial-desktop-xfce4-fast-forward.md](alpine-tutorial-desktop-xfce4-fast-forward.md)

## instalacion Xfce4 Alpine
Since Alpine 3.13 the XFCE4 desktop its GTK3 for 32bit devices its better to use alpine 3.10
or 3.12 that uses GTK2 for almost all the programs.

## How to use this guide
This guide **structure all the commands in blocks, each block its separated by a line spaced**,
so you must **type each line as is.. and hit enter**, so you noted that then you
typed each separated clocks of commands, copy/type only blocks separated by an empty line,
all new(next) lines are made by just enter. the terminal will detect if must execute or not.
**If you have another computer or gui**, try to use SSH client like putty or just in terminal (MAC or Linux) do:
1. at the Alpine installation: `sed -i 's|.*PermitRootLogin.*|PermitRootLogin yes|g' /etc/ssh/sshd_config;service sshd restart`
2. at the other OS just connect: `ssh -l root <ip>` change "`<ip>`" with the address of your device.
3. copy each separated by empty line, block of command, copy only blocks separate by empty line
4. and paste each separated by empty line block in the remnote (ssh), do not paste all the blocks at same time!
**CAUTION** Some Linux or/and Mac terminals have security cut/paste locks, so
if you paste, the first line will be preceded by garbage, check always the first char of your paste.
**WARNING** after finish, rerun: `sed -i -r 's|.*PermitRootLogin.*|PermitRootLogin no|g' /etc/ssh/sshd_config`
and restart ssh `service sshd restart` becouse security implications.
