Then let's make it 'bising'! Hmm, let's start with games. Anyone have fun and good native Linux games? I have Nexuiz but it's too laggy(network lag), playing with bots are boring. So I'm looking like racing or sports game. SuperTux Kart, is pretty good, I'll download it later. Any suggestions?

QUOTE(G-17 @ Dec 19 2010, 05:19 PM) Edit: indeed. any docky will ruin the sexiness of tiling wm and actually i already config the conky to run under bar_action. Oh, btw .. you can't really use gnome-panel or docky in a tiling WM ... it's pointless, and docky needs compositing to work, which most tilers don't support by default. you can pipe conky output to the ScrotWM bar, however... I actually included the "bar_ action = conky" in the .scrotwm.conf I sent you, Acid_RuleZz , but forgot to tell you how to configure conky to appear on it. I'll show you later after you've solved your current issues. btw i've tried your solution for the xsessions but its not working  |

@Acid_RuleZz
Strange. O_o Is it not working at all (as in ScrotWM does not even start), or does it start but without the wireless? If so, does the wallpaper and keymap get loaded, at least? This post has been edited by G-17: Dec 20 2010, 12:47 AM |

^okay, Firstly, you're sure the scrotwm.sh script is placed in /root and you gave it permissions, right?
Secondly, you're supposed to change the path in feh to your wallpaper  Example: feh --bg-scale /home/acidrulezz/pictures/supermodel.jpg Edit: Sexy terminal, btw  This post has been edited by G-17: Dec 20 2010, 01:04 AM |

^the easy way (using GUI),
In your file manager (you use Nautilus, I presume, so launch nautilus as root user), then go to your /root (click in file system, then double-click on the folder called root) and on the scrotwm.sh file, right-click it, and then go to properties, and there should be a permissions tab... in there, there should be a box saying "Allow this file to run as a program" , make you you tick it. Note: I don;t have Nautilus. The only GUI file manager I have installed is Thunar, and what I explained above is how it looks in Thunar. Nautilus might have different labels for it, but there still should be a box you can tick somewhere in "Properties" OR the cli way open a root terminal and type in; CODE chmod +x /root/scrotwm.sh This post has been edited by G-17: Dec 20 2010, 01:40 AM |

Some reviews say that Linux Mint 10 more polished in term of everything compared to it's parent Ubuntu. Just around the corner they'll release LMDE (Linux Mint Debian Edition) 32 and 64 after their successful 'trial' of first LMDE. Newer PC will be okay with Linux Mint 10. Older PC will have problem with screen resolution problem. I have Mint 10 install on my Pentium 4 but I cannot set the screen resolution higher than 800X640. This problem also happen on Ubuntu 10.10. At time of writing the problem still cannot be solve, no choice but to install back 10.04 on the Pentium 4opensuse 11.3 Downloading their .iso is not a day job for 4.7gb in size, they are offering trillions of offline apps in a single DVD. To get restricted multimedia formats you have to add repos manually which can be easily obtained from their forum. Each releases would be every 9 month and the next 11.4 scheduled on March next year. back track, good for penetration and security purpose, this distribution is a hit for decrypt the wpa/wep. Use it for educational purpose. But their forum is not for noobs asking without searching in within first, else you'll be scold. Typical, elite distro selalu itu macam.

@scorps
Aptosid, GRML, Arch, Slackware, Gentoo, Free-BSD You don't really have to change to another distro if you don't want to.. One of my servers has run Debian Testing for years, since around the time Etch was released. If something works well enough for you, you can always stick to it. Conversely, there's no crime in trying out new things. The choice is yours. This post has been edited by G-17: Dec 20 2010, 03:37 AM |
