Thanks,

I don't think I can help you with the font , I didn't do anything special to get the font to look like that. Just downloaded it and selected it in my terminal profile ,size 9.

The menu thing , right click on the gnome panel > add to panel > main menu

, then remove the other menu > rightclick > remove from panel.

msg43,

i said the name of the font in my screenshot details ..

Font: Tahoma 8, Terminal font: Profont

I downloaded ProFont for Linux, and set it as my terminal font, but it looked nothing like that

Hey Knight,

How does FreeBSD perform on your vaio? I've got a Sony VAIO PCG-R600HFPD and running FC4 on it and it's a bit slow.

BTW, is it easy to get FreeBSD on the laptop, and do you happen to know how to adjust the brightness while on battery?

Thanks.

I'm pretty new to FreeBSD on the desktop, 2 days to be exact, so at the moment I'm not sure this can be done. In Linux it was pretty easy though...

nifty, first freebsd screenie i've seen

Yep, thats them. I thought the icons suited the colours of the wall, so decided to give them a whirl. They're called "Litho" by the way, but can't remember where I found them... I do remember having to use icoutils to convert them from windows .ico format though.

A bunch of changes & tweaks, I'm suprised I haven't destroyed anything yet but I'm learning. I think my plan is to run Ubuntu as much as I can for 1 month and then see where it takes me, because I usually remove linux when I get to a problem I can't solve for more then a few hours.

      I have disabled it, but the app is still taking space. I have a Mac and it is only possible to disable Ai on that, but I think that bit does get rid of the AI components after a while. What we are told is that we agree to all this when we use the devices as it is in the end user agreements, their software, they can do what they like. I doubt that any bill will happen in the U.S, the government there are in league with big tech firms. The E.U maybe, they seem to have some guts when it comes to tech companies. The U.K is not in the E.U, but some things still affect us. Our government is as gutless when it comes to tech companies as the U.s government.

Open Source (C++, wxWidgets) Cross platform for Windows (7/10), Linux, RPi and Mac (if self-compiled) WebChangeMonitor 26.06 release notes: Release 26.06 brings mostly s but updates the underlying core infrastructure. A major compiler is used for both x86/x64 and WoA64 architectures. This also means that all core libraries are re-compiled accordingly which required some changes in the build scripts. One of the core libraries (cURL) has been updated to address vulnerabilities and a nasty linker error that was causing the need for a dedicated patch which could now be eliminated.
