teacher Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 Nice everyone. Guess I will have to append 2006 to the title. Quote
Bruno Posted February 20, 2006 Posted February 20, 2006 Nice one Daihard . . . looks like a tweaked Mepis, is that correct ?? Bruno Quote
misunderstruck Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) Current laptop setup: (with Enlightenment DR17 on Gentoo)If the thumbnail doesn't work, try this link. Edited February 22, 2006 by misunderstruck Quote
Bruno Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Hi DougLooks very nice . . . . but I get an error from imageshack when I click to see the larger pic . . . . please fix, I dearly want to see the full shot. Bruno Quote
striker Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 error loading page ... I would love to see that screenshot with Enlightenment DR17. Quote
Bruno Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 Hurray . . I was able to fix the url for you Doug . . . all is okay ;) Bruno Quote
striker Posted February 21, 2006 Posted February 21, 2006 (edited) Aha.. you must have some miracles upon your sleeve Bruno, thanks : I'll go and have a look... :DLooks gooooooood ! I like it, saw the Elive distro on Distrowatch yesterday : maybe a good one to test it out, it has the Enlightenment DR17. Edited February 21, 2006 by striker Quote
misunderstruck Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Ooops, I edited the post and THEN noticed that Bruno had fixed the url already. Silly me. :)DR17 is great. The EliveCD is definitely worth checking out, especially if you want to get the feel of working with Enlightenment (both 16 and 17) without going through the installation and configuration. I have used the older version, and I plan to check out the newest (released this past Saturday) soon. Quote
daihard Posted February 22, 2006 Posted February 22, 2006 Nice one Daihard . . . looks like a tweaked Mepis, is that correct ?? BrunoThanks Bruno! It is actually Fedora Core 4 w/ KDE 3.5.1. KDE is so customizable, it often leaves no trace of its original desktop! Quote
cybormoron Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) it's a brickwall, hehe. lots of stuff open Edited February 23, 2006 by cybormoron Quote
Bruno Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 LOL Cyber . . . . . Nice shots !!!! . . . Love the panorama view of 2 monitors ;) Bruno Quote
cybormoron Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 (edited) thanks bruno...i am kind of spoiled with it, lol. i am presently limited to repeating patterns tho because i haven't figured out how to get "per monitor wallpaper" yet. xorg thinks it's 1 monitor and most images don't look very good stretched that wide, lol. the nvidia driver in XP lets me have seperate images per monitor. wish i could get a gui configuration interface in mandriva like i have in xp. no hurry tho, i'm busy learning and tweaking other stuff. Edited February 23, 2006 by cybormoron Quote
Bruno Posted February 23, 2006 Posted February 23, 2006 Hi CyborIf you installed the Nvidia drivers the "oldfashion way" there should be a GUI tool called "nvidia-settings" http://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x...appendix-t.html and ftp://download.nvidia.com/XFree86/Linux-x...-user-guide.txtOR:You might try Yanc, "Yet Another Nvidia Configurator" http://freshmeat.net/projects/yancnv/ Bruno Quote

alphaomega Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Now we are cooking... Edited August 11, 2006 by alphaomega Quote
Bruno Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 Great job Alpha !! . . . . . . . . I see you have the karamba that gave you troubles working now. And you found the "nvidia-settings" tool too . . . . well, what more can a geek ask for ? Bruno Quote
alphaomega Posted March 15, 2006 Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) . . .well, what more can a geek ask for ?How about that all the stuff work "as is".But of course how much fun would that be? LOLI never could get them to work "as is" out of the box...even on a fresh install of the latest cooker release.I had to extract the themes out of the superkaramba theme zip (skz) fileand modify the code slightly in order to get them to work....but hey they work.Of course now...with the cooker release...I can not get k3b installed for some reason...[root@cab alpha]# urpmi k3bSome requested packages cannot be installed:k3b-0.12.14-1mdk.i586 (due to missing libk3b2-0.12.14-1mdk.i586)libk3b2-0.12.14-1mdk.i586 (due to unsatisfied libavformat.so.0)Continue installation anyway? (Y/n) n** cooker bug 21635 noted : after recent update...I'm back in business.And there are some posts I need to locate (I could have sworn I saw them somewhere - by you)in order to fix:1. mcc/security - only the firewall settings are there.I remember a mention about fixing some linked file to correct this...but I can not locate the original post yet.** I feel stupid now...mcc / options / advanced...2. fixing the interactive firewall "can not open whitelist file".This one I think I found...since I participated in it...I just have to go over it again...** fixed...by adding whitelist file.3. segmentation fault when running ltris.note: I can run ltris like so "strace ltris"...that's odd?** other that that...cooker does not look too bad...:DAnyway...now back to some more cooking...Thanks...And Cheers Edited March 17, 2006 by alphaomega Quote
cybormoron Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) i figured out how to have "per monitor wallpaper". since i couldn't figure out how to have a different image on each monitor of my twinview thru xorg i made 1 large image with 2 merged images thereby appearing to be a different image on each monitor. images = snagged from the web somewhere editor = gimp 2.2 per monitor backgrounds = priceless http://img135.imageshack.us/img135/4356/dt...w26may067ik.jpganyone know how to keep a png file under 1024 kb?

epp_b Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 (edited) Here's mine :)VectorLinux SOHO 5.1...That gorgeous car, by the way, is a Koenigsegg CCX (sadly, not mine ). It is capable of pumping out over 900 HP (with the right fuel) and is quite possibly the worlds fastest and most powerful car, next to only the 1000 HP Bugatti Veyron (which is twice the cost of the Koenigsegg).Anyway, I used KSpanshot and The GIMP to edit the image (just scale down for a thumb). I will say, the GIMP is a pretty good application. I don't know what people are complaining about comparing it to Photoshop. Edited May 23, 2006 by epp_b Quote
Peachy Posted May 23, 2006 Posted May 23, 2006 Currently, on my notebook, OpenSUSE 10.1Yes, that's a Photoshop and Picasa icon sitting on the deskop. Yes, they both run in Linux. And you must use WINE. The VMware Management User Interface is an Apache server that monitors your virtual machines. With to VMs running it is only using 60% of the processor's capabilities. I shall be testing a more robust server for a lab this summer.Large version:http://static.flickr.com/53/152076646_48a5075030_o.png Quote
