ncc50446 Posted October 1, 2013 Share Posted October 1, 2013 Not a lot has changed since last month..Same wallpaper at the moment. I need to get my networking properly...For some reason, this laptop can't see my Debian server, yet my two Windows computers can...And it has all my wallpapers lol But updated to Jessie, and the 3.11.2 kernel. First time I've compiled a kernel. Also using the new Haggis Stats 2.0 program, works good :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

+Majesticmerc MVC Posted October 3, 2013 MVC Share Posted October 3, 2013 Arch Linux x64 XFCE 4.10 Theme: Zukitwo Wallpaper: Taken from here Icons: Faelementary UI Font: Droid Sans The wallpaper actually spans two monitors, but I've modified the wallpaper to compensate for the screen bezel and differing resolutions so it looks crap as a screenshot, therefore I'm only showing my main monitor.

Karl L. Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Not a whole lot has changed on my desktop since the last time I posted in one of these threads, other than my desktop background and the new Icedove and Minecraft icons pinned to my top panel that is. My desktop background comes from the Autumn 2013 theme posted here. In case anyone is interested, I posted my script for extracting and sanitizing backgrounds from "Windows 8 Desktop Themepacks" below. #!/bin/bash ARCHIVE_MANAGER_EXEC='file-roller' EXTRACT_DIRECTORY='deskthemes' DESKTOP_BACKGROUND_DIRECTORY="$EXTRACT_DIRECTORY/DesktopBackground" which $ARCHIVE_MANAGER_EXEC 1>/dev/null 2>&1 if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then ARCHIVE_MANAGER_EXEC=engrampa which $ARCHIVE_MANAGER_EXEC 1>/dev/null 2>&1 if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then echo "ERROR: Archive manager is not installed!" 1>&2 exit 1 fi fi if [ -e $EXTRACT_DIRECTORY ]; then echo "Deleting: $EXTRACT_DIRECTORY" rm -rf $EXTRACT_DIRECTORY fi for file in *.deskthemepack; do echo "Extracting: $file" $ARCHIVE_MANAGER_EXEC --extract-to=$EXTRACT_DIRECTORY --force "$file" done if [ ! -d $DESKTOP_BACKGROUND_DIRECTORY ]; then echo "ERROR: Directory \"$DESKTOP_BACKGROUND_DIRECTORY\" does not exist!" 1>&2 exit 2 fi for file in $DESKTOP_BACKGROUND_DIRECTORY/*.*; do new_file="$file" echo "$new_file" | grep -Eqs '\.[jJ][pP][eE]{0,1}[gG]$' if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then echo "$new_file" | grep -qs '\.jpg$' if [ $? -ne 0 ]; then new_file="$(echo $new_file | awk 'BEGIN {FS="."} {for (i=1;i<NF;i++) {printf $i"."}; print "";}')jpg" fi fi echo "$new_file" | grep -Eqs '[0-9]+\s*x\s*[0-9]+' if [ $? -eq 0 ]; then new_file="$(echo "$new_file" | awk 'BEGIN {FS="_*[0-9]+\s*x\s*[0-9]+"} {for (i=1;i<=NF;i++) {printf $i}; print ""}')" fi if [ "x$file" = "x$new_file" ]; then echo "TOUCHING: $file" else echo "MOVING: $file $new_file" mv "$file" "$new_file" fi touch "$new_file" done exit 0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gerowen Posted October 4, 2013 Share Posted October 4, 2013 Playing around with the "Numix" theme. I like it for the most part. I got it from their PPA, as found on their website: http://numixproject.org/ Clean Dirty Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PM me if you want. :) Edit: Never mind, I figured out conky manager, but I still want to know your theme. It's the default elementary theme. There's a download here that should get the same results for you (assuming Gnome or XFCE). Don't know what the icons are though, they look pretty good with the theme though :).
