GNU/Linux March Desktops

[Hurmoth]

Not bad, like your wallpaper and nice clean look :) but uh, why are you running as root?

It was only temporary ;)

This is why I'm glad Ubuntu disables the root account by default, it really is painful to see people logged into an X session as root.

I mean, why not use freaking $su, or even better $sudo. There is no need to logon as root.

Fedora Core 3.. not very heavily customized as i'm so out of the loop with Linux and just don't know wtf I am doing in X quite honestly! Can't seem to get GTK2 themes to work properly.. some of the really nice looking rounded buttons and stuff always just come up as gnarly old GTK1 style square buttons etc.. :(

Anyway.. screenshot..

You can go into theme properties (or something like that, I'm in Windows right now so I'm not completely sure) And you can set window borders and then theres window or something like that, then there are icons. If you match them up through borders and buttons maybe then it'll work?

Either that or it could be that it just comes with the buttons without the borders or vice versa.

I don't know if any of that made any real sense..

As some of you know or may have guess, I almost always just use the command line. I do use KDE every once and awhile for something that requires GIMP, or for synaptic for when I have a lot of apps I want to install in a hurry.

Well here's my March Desktop! Also one of my cool flashy apps running too!

Too bad the server I was downloading from kept freezing to throttle my download :(

And here's me surfing Neowin!...actually yeah I use KDE to surf the internet seriously.
