What ... the ... hell is with all the stinking Gnomes these days!
On a side note, since both my babies are boxed up at the moment (read: still), everyone will just have to imagine my screenshot. Unless you want a screenie of my stock WindersXP work machine.
... yeah, thats what I thought.
here mine. Gnome on Ubuntu,
Running Debian sarge, gnome is from sid though
GNOME 2.10 my Default
&
KDE 3.3
NOthing, man what is all that stuff up on Gnome? and whats that SETI stuff, I think I need that, just passed 3500 units on my seti.
My desk top is soooo boring, what to do?
You talking about the stuff in the lower left corner its torsmo, its a text based system monitor, i havent customized it yet, it can monitor all your partitionand other system stuff i learned of it through gentoo, the seti stuff i havent learned how to utilize it yet.
Anyhow i got it through apt on debian
apt-get install torsmo, or search torsmo in synaptic, if its not in ubuntus default which i would be suprised add a debian mirror.
and heres the official site, the screenshots show what its capable of.
http://torsmo.sourceforge.net/
and check out this thread on gentoos forums its tips and tricks
http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-t...ht-torsmo.html
I find torsmo is the best mix barely eats any of your system, you want something more graphicals search for gdesklets.
NOthing, I was talking about the stuff on the Gnome toolbar?
But that SETI thing has me hooked, please learn how to use it and report back.
I have my seti running in a term because I don't know how to make it run any other way. Its okay but I like to check stats from time to time.
Its nice to see what other people have going on in their Linux world, always makes me jealous.
Well the top toolbar is like a quick launch i have that as my default setting for all my distros, anyhow i wanted my thing to look like a mac somewhat, all i did was add applicaition launcher and gnome applets, right click on the toolbar and click add to panel you then should see custom application launcher, application launcher (shows you the menu layout i.e internet, sound and video, system, click the little arrow expands the options and you can add an application to the bar, i hardly use menus thanks to that., then gnome applets click add, right cl.ick on the newly added item and you will get properties, or some configure option.
Top
Left to right
Menu, file browser, terminal, search for files, open office, abiword, gaim, firefox, amarok, totem, firestarter synaptic, gksudo (run as different user, log out, lock screen, force quit, notification area, clock/date, open windows, volume control
Bottom
Left to right
pager, show desktop, open windows. (On ubuntu you should also have the trash applet).
To have them not take the whole screen right click the panel then select properties, then click expand that will make it shrink and grow as needed, go to background, select solid color and you can make it transparent hope that helps.
Note essential same for kde cept u need to add a panel.
