Screenshot Thread

[Beavenburt]

Just about every Linux forum has a screenshot thread, so I thought I would get the ball rolling here.
Hopefully this goes well, i've never up'd an image here before. Anyway, here goes.

Debian Lenny
XFCE4 Desktop
Wallpaper = debian-blueish-wallpaper
GTK2 = TGT4-Chrome
Icons = Elementary
Window Manager theme = axe rounded
Cursor theme = Oxygen (Very Nice basically KDE4's but in grey, not sure it is visible in these screenshots)

Hello,

Indeed some Linux forums I've seen have their "screenshot thread" :)
I'm constantly modifying my desktop appearance, here is a new.

YaST is working flawlessly for me. No complaints here.

[Beavenburt]

I know what you're saying. However, I installed this from the kde 4.2.2 livecd, downloaded from here:

http://home.kde.org/~binner/kde-four-live/

YaST is actually quite conservative in it's options. I'll post some more screenies from home later, time permitting. I think this is like a mini suse install with kde on top. It's really very nice.

Hi all :)

Here's my modest contribution (an Ubuntu with the default WallPaper... ::) ) and some of my running applications ...
Comments on the screen capture via FastStone capture 5.2 (freeware) running on Ubuntu with WINE...

I like commands lines (since Unix system V and BSD...) but sometimes I have to read the MAN... :doubt:

and, last but not least, I'm a (very little) "pirate" too... ;)

Keep smile! :)

[Riverrun]

Jaunty with none of the bling.

[Arup]

I see Google Picasa on your taskbar, did you install beta 3 by adding the repos or did you install via .deb?

[Riverrun]

I used the deb package, wouldn't like to chance a Beta on a Beta. ;)

[Arup]

-{ Quote: "I used the deb package, wouldn't like to chance a Beta on a Beta. ;)" }-


Good idea.

[Beavenburt]

My current Arch with KDEMod 4.2.2 which I must say is fantastic and certainly a keeper. I'm very impressed and feeling quite settled with this. May well keep me from going back to Debian when KDE4 goes into testing.

Just installed the Ubuntu RC1. I last tried Ubuntu years ago and hated it. Quite like it now. :)

[Beavenburt]

A fairly standard Fedora Gnome desktop. Just a different panel image and Metacity theme. Must say i'm loving Fedora. It's here to stay on my system, been a month or so now. Has to be some sort of record for me!!! I'll probably switch to Fedora KDE once 4 is stable and mature enough, as I do still prefer good old KDE. After much playing it's just not quite there enough for me, but it will be.

[Judge Dee]

Ubuntu 9.04

[Ocky]

Same old thing - but showing Opera ibis skin.

[Beavenburt]

Back with Arch and LXDE. I forgot just how lightening fast, lightweight and simple this is. I'm really urging myself to stop now. I can't get anymore perfect than what i've got but I just know something will test my resolve soon. KDE 4.3 in Debian perhaps :P There's just too much niceness in Linux to stick with one thing.

[Ocky]

So glad CentOS developers are back on track ! I have 5.3 on an older laptop
which I use from time to time. Very stable and everything works. :thumb:

[Mrkvonic]

You managed wireless on CentOS ...? Nice one. I just completed my review - will be up in a few weeks, no wireless for me, I'm afraid ...

Connecting via a Netgear AP. It's an HP nx6110 notebook. To get wireless I
needed to install the driver for Intel Pro Wireless (ipw2200). Also, from the
Applications menu>Network Configurations be sure to set the Channel (11 in
my case).
One needs to get the rpmforge repository to get all the goodies (also for the
ipw2200 driver). Otherwise everything from flash to java to all possible
multimedia/codecs incl. Apple Trailers etc. works like a charm.

Regards and looking forward to another great review. :thumb:

This months ubuntu.

[NGRhodes]

Beavenburt,

Is that the bluebuntu theme ?
I tried it recently and would not install due to missing dependancies.

[Beavenburt]

No NR, I made this up myself thus:

GTK2 = clearlooks
Metacity = default human but customised with the dark blue colour.
Icons = human blue from gnome-look
Mouse cursor (can't see it in the screenie) = downloaded the fedora bluecurve rpm and converted it to deb with alien.
Googled ubuntu wallpaper and stumbled upon the wallpaper.
At the bottom is just a transparent panel with some launchers.

I didn't realise there was actually an ubuntublue theme! I'm even more proud of myself for creating this now. I love it.

As an aside I forgot how good a full install of the official ubuntu is. I'm leaning towards replacing arch permantly on my desktop with this.

[Beavenburt]

Added a simple conky. Lovely easy on the eye desktop.

[Beavenburt]

A slight variation. Now with transparent panel, new wallpaper and updated conky. My new found love for ubuntu and gnome continues. Makes me wonder why I messed around with Arch, netinstalls, WMs etc when it was all so easy. Even the missus is getting on with ubuntu - has to be a good sign!

[Ocky]

I really must get up the courage to try Conky one day - nicer than GKrellM. Not really a Firefox user but had nothing much to do so decided to post screenie. :P

A fairly unspectacular KDE 4.3.2 on my Arch install. Though I must say the KDE guys have worked miracles with this release, it's very smooth.

[demonon]

Nice to see that KDE can actually look good and work good too.
I think the way some distros incorporate KDE into their distro is abysmal

[L815]

-{ Quote: "A fairly unspectacular KDE 4.3.2 on my Arch install. Though I must say the KDE guys have worked miracles with this release, it's very smooth." }-

Is this KDE-Mod or the default KDE repo? Also, what theme is that for KDE & Firefox? I rather like KDE4 only I'm having trouble with resizing gtk app fonts, and sluggish performance with Firefox :(

[Beavenburt]

No need for kdemod nowdays L815. KDE in Arch is now modular anyway and you can install whatever components you wish.
See here:- http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KDE_Packages
pacman -Sy gtk-kde4 is what you want for gtk fonts. It drops an option in systemsettings and then you can change gtk themes and fonts. I use verdana from the ttf-ms-fonts package.
I use the old plastique theme for kde with slightly modded colours and silicon plasma theme.
Firefox theme is strata reloaded.
If you've got the time just keep playing, you'll end up with something you love eventually.

[Beavenburt]

With Kde 4.3's new folder view. Awesome.

[quintile]

Right now I am enjoying Mepis with lots of "Space"! 8)

(With 'space junk' floating around.. :D)

[Beavenburt]

For anyone who's interested I found a great (imo) ubuntu cursor theme here:-
http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Ubuntaero+-+Aero+based+w%2B+animated+logo?content=108598
It's based on aero which I like, it even has a drop shadow. Just a little something to sex up your desktop if you so wish.

[iceni60]

my desktop setup hasn't changed from the picture i took on the first page. it hasn't changed for about 3 years, i really need to do a reinstall with something a bit newer lol.

You can get folder views in gnome with screenlet. Just a gimmick - it does work nicely though. Had to reduce quality due to upload limit.

Hi wat0114,

In the Compiz settings manager, just go to Desktop Cube>Appearance>Skydome(tick it)>Skydome Image. Then browse to select your image.
Then just play around with the Cube Reflection & Deformation settings. Ground colour near and far (0 Opacity) and Intensity under the Reflection Tab etc.

Forums rather quiet. Have a great 2010.

Also, be sure to use a skydome as your image. You can google for "compiz skydome" and you should find a number of them. These will allow your background to rotate along with the cube.

Hey, Trespasser

Is Nero Linux free and how does it compare to K3b ? BTW. 'Plain' is preferable to cluttered - my desktop doesn't always look that kitschy - it's just that one tends to 'invoke' all the candy for showing off in screenshot threads .... :P Edit: I remember that I used it before but removed it after trial had expired. It was very good indeed.


216411

[Trespasser]

Hello, Ocky
No, NeroLinux 4 isn't free. It costs around $20.00 (US) for a license and that license is only good for that particular version level (example...NeroLinux 2, 3, 4, etc.). Also, I'm not really qualified to compare NeroLinux to K3B (it's been years since I've used it). Back then K3B was probably the best free burning software available for linux but I had trouble with it. Then I tried NeroLinux 2 and liked it (I think a lot of it stems from the name "Nero", to be honest :P ....I used Nero back in my early XP days). Development is slow for NeroLinux 4 at present but it is very nice to use. If you remember Nero Express then you'll feel quite at home with NeroLinux Express. You can try it out for 30 days if you wish. They have deb and rpm versions for both 32 and 64 bit.

[Ocky]

Thanks for the feedback. I also used Nero in XP before moving to Linux. It was Nero 6 which was excellent. The later versions became increasingly bloated. I will stick with K3b as, apart from some minor niggles, it's free and does what I want. Would have probably switched to Nero Linux if it were gratis.

Slickness Black with vision black emerald theme and black and white gloss icons on my Karmic x64, quad core Phenom.

-{ Quote: "Slickness Black with vision black emerald theme and black and white gloss icons on my Karmic x64, quad core Phenom." }-

I got my first AMD processor about a week ago. Not bad. I like it. Had always used Intel prior to this. I built it from NewEgg. Mine's an Athlon II X4 630 Propus quad core 2.8ghz Socket AM3. It runs real cool and quiet.

One thing I don't like about a 64 bit system is flash sucks under it. My wife loves her Facebook flash games so naturally I searched high and low for a solution. Flash Player 64 bit works very poorly (if at all) and nspluginwrapper with flash 10.1 beta 3 works alright but her games are slow to react. I did find that a 32 bit Firefox runs fine within a 64 bit system. So far I'm not too impressed with 64 bit.

One thing I don't like about a 64 bit system is flash sucks under it. My wife loves her Facebook flash games so naturally I searched high and low for a solution. Flash Player 64 bit works very poorly (if at all) and nspluginwrapper with flash 10.1 beta 3 works alright but her games are slow to react. I did find that a 32 bit Firefox runs fine within a 64 bit system. So far I'm not too impressed with 64 bit.

For some strange reason adobe hasn't even created an alpha 64bit flash player for windows but strangely has for linux. Most browsers are 32bit so thats why adobe hasn't bothered to support 64bit browsers.

There is some kind of resistance to it on Adobe's part, which I don't really understand. If they put out an alpha for Win, I think you'd see more activity in x64 browser development...

Apart from Facebook games which run fine on FF but not on Opera, flash x64 rocks on my system, its generally faster and even in full screen, youtube movies play out very well. Phoronix did a benchmark recently and as suspected, flash x64 in Linux outperformed flash x32 counterparts in Linux and Windows.

Maybe I was a "little" harsh :dry: ...libflashplayer x64 (version 10.0.45.2) does play some Facebook games nicely but not the ones my wife are most interested in...like YoVille, Social City, Farm Town, plus others. If Adobe would update their current 64 bit pre-release (10.0.45.2) to the functionality of 32 bit 10.1 beta 2 or 3 (which I consider to be the best flash players ever) my wife would be quite happy...which would mean I'm happy.

In a terminal, sudo apt-get lm-sensors hddtemp ksensors

There will be a blue screen popping up for hddtemp configuration, select yes for all.

Then do a sudo sensors-detect and select yes for all the prompts and then you would have to hit enter twice as per instructions there.

Reboot and start up Ksensors for hardware temp and voltages. You can add Ksensors to your startup so that it comes on next time you reboot.

Its a minor glitch, I always compile my own x264, ffmpeg and mplayer and then use the excellent SMPlayer to watch HD movies via VDPAU.

Take a look at the screenlets section http://gnome-look.org/index.php?xsortmode=high&page=0&xcontentmode=6700
The one I have is InfoPanel but to tell you the truth I don't really need it. There are other ways. It does look nice though. Install screenlets from repo. first.
Have you tried Okular pdf reader ? Highly recommended by several in the Unix forum.

[cet]

I have used Okular on my previous installation of Kubuntu,it was a nice application.But when I tried to install it from repos it wanted to install a lot of KDE based applications to work on gnome, instead I installed ePDF from the repos and it is nice too.The Evince bug is being worked on too,I hope they are going to fix the bug soon.

I am also aware that you could make gnome look like KDE, Windows7 or OSX if you want.

To me Win7 looks like a sick cartoon copy of KDE and less I say about KDE the better, lets say Plasma is good for children to pass time. OSX is for those
who think their PC is but a toy to play with and show off. Gnome is dull, drab but stable and functional and for those obsessed with looks, there are enough themes to make it look as shiny as possible.

I have to agree that I've never seen a good-looking third-party theme for GNOME, and that includes even the Ubuntu community themes as well. But that's not to say it's impossible for GNOME to look good; openSUSE and Linux Mint have done pretty cool stuff with their GNOME versions, and Lucid actually looks decent as well.

I do agree with you. Gnome is stable and functional, i use it on two computers (one with ubuntu and one with archlinux). However gnome is so full with inconsistency design wise (imho).

For example, why oh why is there half the menus with icons and half without? Why can't i be allowed to chose either no icons at all or icons everywhere? (yes i can turn on icons everywhere by fumbling around in gconf). As it is now it just seems extremely nonprofessional.

And why can't i have a custom icon in nautilus bookmarks? For example if i have a folder with a custom icon and then put it in "places" it shows as the default folder icon.

Might seem like small issues for some people, but when they start to pile up... We have a saying in my country "Many small brooks will form a big river" :)

That is great,especially the awn.Everything is just working so perfectly here that I did not have the courage to install any dock.So I resized the original bars.;) And the memory usage is no more than 300MB.
How much memory does your dock use?

[mack_guy911]

hmm without doc my memory size is 418 in ubuntu 64 bit

with doc compiz many features enable also screen let and terminal transparent mode ......etc its about 548+ and awn including applets indicators...etc is taking about 25-30 alone

i got 6 gb ram mostly they use on vbox but i want to use some on desktop as well

i more thing i notice that ram does effect on 64 bit my ubuntu loads in 11-13 sec i check 7 times without having quad core i got only core 2 duo 2.66 processor

i am sure with quad core 4 gb + ram break 10 sec record

but on 32 its between 250-350 some less

i guss with awn 450-550+

i enable many features like 3d spot light.....etc

well i sugest try awn without deleting original bars if it take your whole memory your swap memory start working it will little slow but work so if you dont like switch back


yes i agree awn create great effects i suggest you should try at least without setting it to default run on startup

As to my study, it's a 2.7m long desk with two desktops at opposite ends, a printer in the middle, and a handful of modems and routers and external disks, plus UPS of course. That's the work/game den.

There's also a fleet of laptops, but the beauty is, you can use them anywhere :)

I do lack in desktop space, though. And I'm planning on yet another laptop and maybe one of those revo 3610 little boxes, so I'm really getting low on space. There's a desktop box packed, unplugged, cause I've run out of sockets and power distributors. In the work/game den I got 14 plugs!

OK, I had better take your word re. the quality sleep time. I was going by the time zone difference, assuming always you reside somewhere in N. America, and comparing to the times of your posts here, led me to believe that you are one of the lucky ones that only need 3/4 hours sleep a day.
