Good point, gutterslob.

Although I did find 'sh#!' pretty funny.

@sleepy floyd: what image viewer is that?

I registered andreas with my Launchpad account, what a breeze it was. Great effects that make flashing pages sod off in shame, or something like that. I really like it already smile

Thanks for the link. If I would want to mirror that myself, I guess I could just download all those files and put them on a server?

Just a new wallpaper, I am the right one.

iirc, cb-fortune is just a script, getting random proverbs from a fixed location. try "which cb-fortune" (without quotations) to find the location of the script and just open it with a text editor to view the source.

Amazingly simple and useful. Also something I was thinking of making but never got around to. Thanks a lot!

@Digit: thanks for bringing up CRUX again, maybe I'll be able to try it out this weekend, or even in a virtual machine. I'll let you know when I have.

I wish I could read that article.

Did it auto send you to the video?

I did not see it until corenominal sent me the link

Well, at the paypal page (when you finish killing pennies) you can click a link that directs you back to crunchbang.org, the page with the video.

Did someone give Commodere OS a try? If so how did it fare, I'm curious.

I just received an email with this document attached I would need to sign to be a beta tester:
link to doc but I'm not sure I could tell you about it if I'd sign it.

Problaby not going to try it even if that torrent download works, it looks amazingly shit with the Compiz cube.

Linux desktops: when something could look like anything else and you can't tell the difference.

Would be nice indeed for the head start for a ARM version... hint, hint hint tongue

Anyway, I think you just need to get the package list from aptitude (I think, not sure which exact command gives you that list) and then put all the package names in the debian live config. Last time I can remember you could put package names in it, so I'm not sure wether it still works that way. Biggest thing would be configs though

yes and no: tint2 doesnt support borders on 1 side, nor does it support gradients nor does it support images. I did try it with tint2 but it just didn't look and feel right. That's why I chose bmpanel2. But yes, tint2 would be easier.

Link to the theme I made

@lowrider: indeed. #! is the only forum I know where it's more about the philosophy of usage instead of which distro you actually use.

BMPanel2 styled to fit zukitwo, still not really happy with it, the workspace selector acts strangely with offsets and some space, and when I hover over a task the text doesnt stay the same. Minor issues but things I'll probably fix and then post the exact config here. Now I'm looking at the thumbnail, the opacity looks off too.

Gnome3.2 as you can see, I kind of like it, still editing it to my taste. Going to make a second panel at the bottom, probably bmpanel2 in the style of the topbar so I have some tasks etc. Theme is Zukitwo or something

I was dissapointed to find out that it didn't work in Opera. Works fine in Firefox  though.
Also, try "tilt" without quotations. Does work in Opera.

My opinion about Asus
"Asus desktops: No experience with. Asus laptops: be cautios, dont take cheap models. Asus netbooks: great."

Just looking at the specs, that should be one fine machine to play Minecraft on, with pretty high settings too like 3d, smooth light, far render distance, fancy graphics, large fov, etc.
I'm not sure about how well the i3 performs compared to the higher end core2duo or i5 or even i7, but I think it's pretty good for some of the older and simpler 3d games like Portal, TF2, that kind of stuff (and do correct me if I'm wrong). 6GB DDR3 ram is of course more than enough and the hard disk is big enough too.

I have written my own software for listing images and albums and put it on my host, you can see it here and you just upload the thumbnail and image via ftp. You can get the link by navigating to the image. Works perfect for me because I like the control, it's fast and really easy to show off a whole directory of images to someone if I want.
