dude67 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Ian, what is that app that gives you the system & HDD info on the desktop? That looks cool - way better looking than any skin I've found for the GKrellM app. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reiver_Fluffi Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 gdesklets :) And IIRC the desklet is called FTB, you can get it here if your distro doesn't package it (this is the only place I could find the source for this desklet).

Nope, not hardened: ian@esprit ~ $ eselect profile list Available profile symlink targets: [1] default-linux/x86/2006.1 [2] default-linux/x86/no-nptl [3] default-linux/x86/no-nptl/2.4 [4] default-linux/x86/2006.1/desktop [5] default-linux/x86/2007.0 * [6] default-linux/x86/2007.0/desktop [7] hardened/x86/2.6 [8] selinux/2007.0/x86 [9] selinux/2007.0/x86/hardened going by this I'm just using 2007.0 default from installation. It's the only distro I could get installed on my laptop, because all of them were failing to boot with busybox problems (Ubuntu 7.04, Fedora 7 to name some). And none of the supposed solutions out there worked for my machine. My machine boots from power on to being logged in, in just over a minute.

Reiver_Fluffi Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 (edited) You oughta remove the part of that script "Security features" as it refers to SELinux (this part doesn't actually pick a variable up, it just echo's some text.) P.s. Fedora 8 is out today, might be worth a try ;) Edited November 8, 2007 by Reiver_Fluffi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Eeek, your right. Just removed those lines. I wondered why it was reporting that. Never looked at the script hard enough :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude67 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 Thanks guys, I'll look into that tonight when I get home. Here's my new screenshot. November 2007 ver 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 dude67, what them you using in Gnome? Love the dark look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dude67 Posted November 8, 2007 Report Share Posted November 8, 2007 (edited) The shiny black metal/plastic looks very nice, don't you think! I especially like the menus (you cannot see them in this screenshot though). The theme is called OrangeLinstaBlackPlastic. It's in Gnome-look.org. It goes very well with a dark or quite black background image. Edited November 8, 2007 by dude67 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ianw1974 Posted November 9, 2007 Report Share Posted November 9, 2007 It looks great. The only decent dark theme I had was PolyCarbonate Dark. But the newly one available doesn't give window borders, but was lucky I kept the old one. Gonna download this one you got now and check it out Ain't this sharing your desktop stuff fun eh for new eyecandy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
