4.7gb is a time consumed of downloading, the good are under a hood of a DVD, you'll get KDE, Gnome and other.. offline dependencies, thousands of apps...

Woah , which means i can choose gnome or kde or install both ?

Yes you can at different installation of partition, or run it within the same OS but you'll find tonnes of 2 native files of KDE and Gnome under the same root. To get run either KDE or gnome, logout and choose what desktop you want and login again but it will be a really messy desktop. The new openSUSE 11.4 will be launch this March, better wait for that as today they are at Milestone 5 level, the 6 will ne the final version.

Yeah , ive installed KDE in my Ubuntu before , my Gnome bcome KDE like , n it was --- YUCK = =

KDE is kinda abit *bling bling* type and some say its hard to use , might wanna get used to it

tho some of app also built for KDE..like one of favourite burning tools like k3b, lol

finally. the rock has come back.. i mean finally managed to install lmde into my portable drive after countless reboot and reformat.

No longer LMDE, showing Julia a way back to her palace. I wish to stay longer with LMDE do to it's rolling release which we do save our time from downloading new iso for each new release. And openSUSE is following suit as the developers are working on a project called Tumbleweed http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-project...1/msg00206.html started with this coming 11.4, openSUSE is going to introduce the rolling release distribution.

congratz

nice.. i would give that a chance, rpm based rolling distro

Finally == did u backup

Sharing is caring time

Ive discover a way to change the login background , icons on the login background and theme of the login background for Maverick . (Coz gdm2setup is not compatible anymore with Maverick)

Snapshot : (Taken with Cybershot instead , cant print-screen )



Customized it with a Faenza Variants Cupertino icon + elementary Theme and even Compiz's wobbly windows

Ive even changed the font setting (making it smaller) and changed the cursors to black instead of default white

Background can be changed using this method too

All you need to do is juz type this command @ Terminal :



Then logout and tweak from there

Then login again and type :



This will prevent the Appearance app from starting off everytime you login into your Ubuntu

*Dun forget to copy your background to this folder if u wanna change the login background




Tested on Ubuntu Maverick 10.10

Might work on any os which is based on Ubuntu 10.10 Test @ ur own risk

tried too,but they not give any respond....

might cant be removed ==i source edits to remove it may also cause some twitches

really that nice eh too bad my lmde didnt even have plymouth.. wont dare to install it myself

I don't know if openSUSE is using plymouth as Ubuntu does, openSUSE is using legacy GRUB opposed to GRUB2 by Mint. Plymouth is not working against LMDE if I am not mistaken.

Hey guys,

On a totally different topic (sorry for derailing thread), has anybody heard of a way to push installations to Windows computers over the domain using a Linux server?

My google-fu skills have failed me in this and I'm not sure if its possible.

As an apology for the derailment, an XKCD comic

Anyone using Twitter here ?

Hotot maybe is your best fren ~

Juz sharing

@cocooh
only twitter? how bout facebook and tumblr?

Tumblr got also but it didn get update for bout few months

Facebook ~ Tweetdeck can solve that but Hotot cant support facebook (they say sumting bout it which i cant remember)

Why i didn use Tweetdeck ? Uses alot of RAMS

Maybe you can try Tweetdeck for Chrome (installable through App Store)

Waiting for the new Gwibber , hope it doesnt disappoint me
