September 2012 Desktops

First Server 2012 screenshot from me.... one thing sucks... NO START SCREEN BACKGROUNDS on server 2012 :-(

Wait, they put a tablet interface on Server 2012 as well? What a stupid thing to do. Lets encourage more incompetent server administrators to believe they can manage servers.

Here's mine:

Love your desktop! :) I can see you have steam under wine. I hope they release it soon for Linux! What are those system monitoring graphs called? How did you install them? This is Ubuntu 12.10 right?

To be honest, I don't bother much with the desktop customisation. Not like some do on here with Arch or even Windows.

Its pretty much the default desktop from 12.04 ;)

Monitoring graphs are "System Load Indicator" - they work pretty well actually. Can't wait for Steam on Linux to arrive :p

Installing SLI:

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:indicator-multiload/stable-daily && sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install indicator-multiload

Desktop Mode:
