How do you like archlinux?

It's great! I don't know if my skills have improved or it is because of arch, but everything runs without much effort and very very smooth. Been running it for more than 2 months now after gentoo and it feels great :yes:

Did you leave Gentoo for a particular reason? What did arch offer?

I left gentoo because i got bored of all that compiling! I like the idea of having a base system and building up your system but after the 4th time i had to compile x.org i decided that it was enough. I came across arch and it looked like gentoo without the compiling. That was enough for me. The only thing i miss about gentoo is its HUGE repository...

This is getting off topic though. pm me if you want to continue the talk ;)

Just checked a while ago and It was in backports-staging. Happy to say I've now got graphite running... :D

Ubuntu users don't need to upgrade clearlooks to 0.6 version, there's a little hack to make working this theme with 0.5 version :)

**UBUNTU/CLEARLOOKS 0.5 FIX**

Ideally the Clearlooks theme is to be used with version 0.6.X but a workaround has been found for those running version 0.5.X. Thanks go to tehmasp for the "hack":

Remove / comment line 51 in gtkrc

"menubarstyle = 0 .... "

If you want control over the menubar then put the following under it after commenting menubarstyle line out.

sunkenmenubar    	= 1       # 0 = disable, 1 = enable

so that it looks like this

  engine "clearlooks" 
  {
    contrast = 1.0
    #menubarstyle      = 2       # 0 = flat, 1 = sunken, 2 = flat gradient
    sunkenmenubar    	= 1       # 0 = disable, 1 = enable
    menuitemstyle     = 1      # 0 = flat, 1 = 3d-ish (gradient), 2 = 3d-ish (button)
    listviewitemstyle = 1       # 0 = flat, 1 = 3d-ish (gradient)
    progressbarstyle  = 0       # 0 = candy bar, 1 = flat  
  }
}

    • Thanks, Sony and Nintendo, you effectively killed platform-agnostic gaming. Long gone are the days when you could wish to play a specific game on whatever platform you were. Now, you have to buy the hardware just to play that single game. What, you're only interested in THAT game and nothing more? Bad luck, suck it and buy our console.
    • The AI data centers need it more than us so...let them gobble it all up at that price!
    • "CRAZIER than ever!" Crazy Taxi: World Tour is officially coming soon by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Sega announced it is working on bringing back some of its classic franchises in 2023, and while it has taken some time, the company finally gave fans a look at one of these new projects at the Xbox Games Showcase today, which turned out to be a brand-new Crazy Taxi entry. Watch the debut trailer above, which has snippets of gameplay in between the cinematic bits while blasting a track from The Offspring. Dubbed Crazy Taxi World Tour, this installment is aptly being described as being "CRAZIER than ever!" The director behind the original, Kenji Kanno, is helming this new entry as well, which will come with access to five new cities to drive in, competitive multiplayer modes, a vehicle customization system, and more. Axel is returning as a protagonist as well, but this time a mystery driver is offering him the opportunity to take his adventures to the streets in other countries. This will involve Axel chasing down masked villains that have somehow stolen his taxi, which means even more extreme missions and challenges to overcome. "From transporting passengers at top speed to tackling unique side missions and odd jobs across dynamic maps, there are countless ways to drive crazy and rake in big money," says Sega about this new installment after over 20 years. "Perform outrageous drifts, catch insane air, and drive at crazy speeds across five different cities as you work to deliver passengers and complete a variety of missions and challenges." The studio has even confirmed an in-game Arcade Mode that players will be able to access containing the original games for plenty of nostalgic action. Crazy Taxi: World Tour is currently slated to release sometime in 2027 across PC, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch 2.
    • This and Crazy Taxi are the two games that interested me the most from this showcase.
