That's an incredibly sleek desktop. (Y)

I have a qq:

How did you manage to get torsmo to work with bitstream (sans-bold?)

Also, I noticed that you published a guide for Xorg-cvs + Composites. How would I be able to implement it in the standard package from Gentoo's portage? Would only the xorg.conf changes suffice?

Why thank you!

I grabbed it from cvs. The version in portage is still 0.17 i think, and that doesn't support antialiased fonts, but there is an ebuild floating around the gentoo forums (search for "torsmo issues") which will let you use decent fonts. See the configs section of my site if you need a hint on how the font should be setup in the .torsmorc.

Yep, that will be fine... assuming that the nerw xorg installs an xcompmgr binary and a transset binary. If it doesn't (and i really don't know if it does or it doesn't) then you'll have to get those two from cvs or something. Details are in the same guide.

Sweet!

I found a wiki entry that does the trick. Thanks!

It's been a while since I last posted my desktop, so here goes nothin'. :)

This is my main rig's desktop. While most of my other machines run wmi-10 as their wm, I decided to spoil this particular machine with Openbox + soft dropshadows. :blush:

[Apps from Top-Left to Bottom-Right: Pypanel, Rox-filer (can't remember the Mimetype-set,) torsmo-cvs, pympc (python-based client for musicpd,) and gmrun.]

OpenBox is running the OfficeBlue theme, with a slightly modified Industrial gtk2 set.

Oh, and the wall is sunny-tropics by some vector-artist I discovered thanks to Neowin.

Thanx again :D

This is the gallery from my page ,  there is a few fvwm screens.

It is in polish language but still you can see the screens :)

Your site looks very interesting and cool, but unfortunately I can't understand polish; have you got an english version of it?

p.s. Your wallpaper collection is excellent!

The english version , well i think about it but my counter on the site is about 100~150 visits a day. This is too small for me :( and the most people are from Poland. Anyway i will consider to change not all to english , but maybe some of them , like menu , gallery , walls ...

I don't have the good idea to change to english , i have a texts about fedora linux in polish , also i had a news in polish language that will be still in polish so .... i think about it but i don't promise anything.

When i think about the site in english the better will be do the hole page in english but this is too much work for me , i haven't got free time to do that.

I finally managed to get linux running on my 486. It took ages to find something that would install, and I had to hack around with it for an inordinate amount of time, but eventually I got ubuntu running on it:

clean

and

dirty

Openbox 3.2, urxvt, and dillo, the mighty mighty browser of kings!

    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know The ONLY thing I need to know is the price, which I know will be way higher than I (and most people) are willing to pay for a phone... so basically nothing here I need to know. PS: Nice job getting that Apple reference to a non-existent and unrevealed product as "competition" in there. Cheque is in the mail.
    • Well I really think the repasting helped if your higher clocks have returned, maybe the next thing to look at is if there is a problem with your case airflow? I guess this because your 3080 has returned to optimal state, but is still staying too warm, which might suggest it was thermal throttling before you repasted, of which the only logical conclusion could be outside factors.
    • Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, Flip 8, Z Fold Wide: Everything you need to know by Hamid Ganji Galaxy Z Fold 7 - Image via Samsung The next generation of Samsung foldables is set to be unveiled next month at the second Unpacked event of the year. Samsung’s 2026 foldables are not expected to offer significant upgrades over their predecessors, with the Korean firm instead focusing on design refinements and conventional upgrades such as faster processors and better cameras. However, Samsung is reportedly planning to unveil an all-new passport-style foldable this year to rival Apple’s first foldable iPhone, which is expected to debut this September. Here’s a roundup of everything we know about Samsung’s upcoming foldable devices ahead of their official debut. When can we expect Samsung’s new foldables? The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 series were unveiled in July, and Samsung is expected to maintain this timeframe in 2026. Based on previous reports from Korean sources, Samsung will hold its Unpacked event on July 22 in London, UK, to pull back the curtain on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series. The devices are also expected to hit the shelves a few weeks after launch. However, Samsung has yet to announce an official date. A new naming scheme? One of the most interesting changes we might see this year is a new naming scheme for Samsung’s latest foldables. SamMobile reported that since Samsung is expected to unveil three foldables this year, it has adopted a new naming strategy to simplify product identification for customers. Accordingly, the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will reportedly be called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and will serve as the direct successor to last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 7. The “Ultra” suffix suggests the phone could feature higher-end specifications, such as additional rear camera modules. Samsung’s new passport-style foldable is expected to carry the Galaxy Z Fold 8 name without any suffix. This model is reportedly equipped with two rear cameras. No major changes are expected for the Flip model. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 anticipated specs Rumors over the past few months suggest Samsung is preparing several upgrades for its upcoming foldables, although the devices may continue to rely on larger batteries and faster charging speeds rather than dramatic design changes. The primary focus this year is expected to be the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and its wide-screen design.

Expected specifications include: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 or Exynos 2600 processor 12GB of RAM with 256GB and 512GB storage options 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X inner dispaly and 4.1-inch Super AMOLED outer dispaly 50MP main camera, 12MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging Android 17 and One UI 9 Samsung’s foldables are also expected to launch with Gemini Intelligence, Google’s AI suite for automating tasks in Android ecosystem. Moreover, given current memory and component costs, some Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Z Flip 8 variants could see a price hike. Galaxy Z Fold 8 adopts a wide-screen design The centerpiece of the upcoming Unpacked event could be the Galaxy Z Fold 8, previously rumored as the Galaxy Z Fold Wide. This model adopts a passport-style form factor and is expected to compete directly with Apple’s iPhone Fold. Galaxy Z Fold 8 official CAD renders - Image via AndroidHeadlines Here’s what to expect: 7.6-inch primary OLED display and 5.4-inch cover display, 120Hz refresh rate, 2,600 nits peak brightness, and 4:3 aspect ratio Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, 12GB or 16GB of RAM, and 256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage options 4,800mAh battery with 45W wired charging 50MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide camera, and 10MP selfie camera Android 17 and One UI 9 The three new foldable phones are unlikely to be the only devices unveiled at Samsung’s Unpacked event. The company is also expected to introduce the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series.
