Xfce was exactly what I asked for. Thanks! It isn't everything I wanted, but I at least realize now what I want. Transparency is a HUGE step for an acceptable modern theme, but the blur effect behind...
Thanks! I'm going to check it out. It looks very promising!
I'm looking for a DE similar to GNOME 2 with transparency enabled for window decorations and the panel. What's the most resource-efficient way of achieving this? (I don't want any other special...
Haha.. I'm resurrecting this (sorry) so I can give credit where credit is due! You were the first to mention Stylish. Sorry for thanking the other guy :).
Thanks :). I do think FF and Thunderbird are loading faster. Unfortunately, it didn't solve the busy cursor problem when I hover over the window border or panels. So if I open Thunderbird and...
alltray seems like a good alternative if nothing else works. It works exactly like I was talking about :).
I've installed preload and prelink, but I don't see any noticeable difference as of yet....
If I uninstall Shredder and reinstall the latest stable Thunderbird, will my profile/inbox be intact?
I'm probably not using the right terminology, but is there a way to have programs already loaded in memory, so when I open them they just instantly appear? Specifically, I want Firefox and...
Thanks a bunch! :) That solved my icon problem, too! I still get the loading cursor well after the browser has loaded and is ready to use, though. Do you know if I can keep FF/Thunderbird...
Yes, I'm on the 64-bit 9.10. I'd like to try the stable 3.6, but.. I don't really know what I'm doing lol. So I go to Synaptic and just uncheck FF, apply, remove the daily repo, add the stable...
1. When I added the ubuntu-mozilla-daily repo and updated to FF 3.6, it now says "Namoroka" instead of "Firefox," and the icon broke. How do I get the icon back? Did I get the latest version of...
You aren't stuck with what comes out of the box, true, but it NEEDS to have the option to look modern out of the box in order to cater to the modern world. It's very difficult (read: near...
I explained how it was misguided.
I would say that the effects you get with Compiz are "flashy," whereas Windows 7 just has a very clean, simple, beautiful look. There's nothing "flashy," no cool...
Except a better analogy would be the body of your favorite new car with a nice engine or the body of 10-year-old used car with paint peeling and a slightly better engine.
Can we get screenshots,...
I'd also like to hear what people have to say.. Are the majority of you who like a modern-looking OS (like newer versions of Windows) using Compiz/Emerald? Or can metacity do the trick? Are you...
At this point, I'm pretty sure people who make comments like you did are just trolls. Why would you ever be against a Linux OS with a new look? At this point, I think what keeps most people away...
1. WHEN is GNOME going to update its native support for themes to accommodate a more modern look? Will it ever? Or is it part of the GNOME philosophy/tradition that everything continues to look...
"Press CTRL+ALT+DELETE to restart"
On one HD, I have a Windows 7 installation. On the other, I have 3 partitions: Linux, Storage (FAT32), another Windows 7.
When I installed Win7 on the...
I can't find it in Gnome :(
Funny that you say it's loaded with games you'll never play.. Kubuntu didn't come with any games for me, but Ubuntu came with like 10. Also, changing theme settings and effects seems a lot harder...
What will I do from there? It will be command line, right? How do I start Gnome?
When KDE logs in, it starts to load programs, then compositing breaks (translucency disables) and everything freezes. This has happened a couple times in the past, but as far as I know, I didn't do...
Okay.. I'm not exactly sure this is even a working project. There are no youtube vids of it, and I've seen a couple posts from google that make it sound like it's just recently been picked up after...
Yeah, I thought of that, too. But no, it's not there, either. Right now I'm going through all of the folders to see if there's a file in one that I can add manually to the list..
Edit--
Here's...
gotaro@gotaro-linux:~$ raptor-menu
bash: raptor-menu: command not found
And that is what it said when I got to it on the install instructions as well.
Also, this is what the search turned up:
