GodFlesh Posted February 14, 2004 Report Share Posted February 14, 2004 I'm trying to do use a complete mac look on my box (mdk 9.2.1). I use aqua themes and icones, but now i would like to have a "dock" It seems that i need to use superkaramba and a theme. But there are several ones at kde look. wich one is the best ?

spiedra Posted February 19, 2004 Report Share Posted February 19, 2004 I've just installed superkaramba v .32b with macox theme bar and looks just like a mac. It is the only one in rpm format that will work with libpython2.3 in Mandrake 9.2, but works fine. You can find it on contrib. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodFlesh Posted February 20, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 yep, that's the one i'm using. Exactly what version of macosx theme are you using ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiedra Posted February 20, 2004 Report Share Posted February 20, 2004 I'm using Karamba Mac Os X Bar, but apperently SuperKaramba Mac Os X Bar - smooth zoom works better and faster so i'll try that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GodFlesh Posted February 24, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 i use superkaramba. could you tell me exactly what was the names of the *.themes files you are using ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spiedra Posted February 24, 2004 Report Share Posted February 24, 2004 I switched to using the superkaramba version of the mac osx dockbar. At first I was using macosx.theme which loads both the dock and bar, but was buggy so I used the macosxbar2.theme for the Karamba theme and macosxbar.theme for superkaramba. Reason being, I found the dock for superkaramba to work better. It is faster and smoother. The Karamba version of the dockbar worked very slow and was resource hungery.

Valavien Posted March 26, 2004 Report Share Posted March 26, 2004 What themes etc do you use to get that total Mac experience. I have found a few at Kde-look but am not sure what to use! I so far have the new KxDocker. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spiedra Posted April 5, 2004 Report Share Posted April 5, 2004 (edited) Your quite welcome. I may change the look a little bit. I saw a nice task bar that i'd lik to try out and give it a more unique look, but in the end of the day, I always come back to Flux.

!nkubus Posted April 5, 2004 Report Share Posted April 5, 2004 Does anyone know where the Config file is kept for Kxdocker? I can't find it and find keeps crashing on me. there is a configurator for kxdocker. i think the binary is kxdocker_configurator. if no the only you cna find it is to use the gnome finnd i dont know what is the binary name but if you loged into gnome you cna easely find kxdocker_conf.xml or something like this. i have only tried once. hopes this helps a little bit Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
