Versions 1.0 and 1.1 of Regolith used the Solarized Dark color pallet by default. In 1.2 we switched to Nord, but it's easy to get it back to Solarized if you prefer.

  1. Install the necessary icon and theme assets:
    $ sudo apt install arc-icon-theme solarc-theme
  2. Create a copy of the Regolith Xresource file (If you've already done this before, skip ahead):
    $ cp /etc/regolith/styles/root ~/.Xresources-regolith
  3. Change your ~/.Xresources-regolith file to use the color-solarized-dark color and theme. Comment out the existing settings like this:
!#include "/etc/regolith/styles/color-nord"
!#include "/etc/regolith/styles/theme-nordic"

And remove the comment (! as first character) on the following lines:

#include "/etc/regolith/styles/theme-regolith"
#include "/etc/regolith/styles/color-solarized-dark"
  1. Save the file, log out and back in and Regolith should be Solarized.
