Nice Gkrellm there Arup. Wish I could get voltages and fans. Did you enable hddtemp daemon for hdd temps ?
Jaunty x64. So far so good, but I still don't think my desktop is done. http://i41.tinypic.com/1538fo7.png
You got a nice desktop there specially with the docked icons, I did enable the hddtemp daemon and the voltage and temp readouts come from lm-sensors.

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.
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 There's just too much niceness in Linux to stick with one thing.
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.
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 ... What I wanted to ask: out of the box or ugly hacks with this and that? Cheers, Mrk
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. (PS .. it's WPA2)
Run from RAM, USB or HD install. Persistent home possible. App browser repo with "on the fly" dep check'in! Responsive learning vehicle. I'd say it works! The novice looking to orient themselves with Nix would quickly learn aboard this one. Install any browser to get started.
Septembers flavour:- ubuntu mini install with the fantastic jwm. Also wbar and wallpaper stolen from Mrk.
Skinbase. Kenwas has some awesome wallpapers - there are a few more frigates plus the WW2 fighter planes in my last screenshot. http://www.skinbase.org/gallery.php?uname=kenwas Regards, Ocky
Beavenburt, Is that the bluebuntu theme ? I tried it recently and would not install due to missing dependancies.
