What background image is that robz0rz?

To be honest, I've been trying to find it again.. I would have sworn I got it off deviantArt as a daily deviation a while ago... You can see the name it is saved by, so it was probably packed in some sort of archive if it really is from dA, but I can't seen to find it anymore. I have the 1680x1050 version that I can send you if you want. If anyone else knows the original origin of that wallpaper, please drop me a message

I've hopped over to Arch :)

Still a long way to go with this, but coming together nicely.

Btw, if someone knows how I can get rid of those 3 desktop icons I'd be grateful ;) I'm sure there was an option in Xubuntu, but it seems to be missing for me.

I'll post a tar of the two configs, the scripts and the fonts when I get home.

I can't take credit for the sidebar config though, I got that config from Cookie on the archlinux forums here: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=463704#p463704

I just made a few small modifications.

Xft.antialias: true
Xft.dpi:	   96
Xft.hinting:   full
Xft.hintstyle: hintslight
Xft.rgba:	  rgb

Xcursor.theme: Neutral_Plus

    • Samsung messages is still alive and well. They reversed that and decided to our more effort into it.
    • I think every American should have a course in a 'dry sense of humour' at school; and perhaps 'using sarcasm in jest' oh, and also 'the use or irony in humour'.
    • What they really need to do is automatically spell "loses" and "lose" correctly since nobody seems to know how to anymore. Then they blame spellcheck/autocomplete and don't realize autocomplete is just filling in the word for them automatically so it was misspelled in the first place.
    • If someone chooses to continue using SB and therefore goes through the manual intervention in the thread, afterwards the BSOD problem is gone. Whether they then re-enable the task doesn't matter, they're done, though on such machines it might pay to keep it disabled in case the next update (if there is a next) causes the same problem. OTOH, if someone disables SB in the BIOS, the problem is also gone. Incidentally, I noticed that this task exists even on machines that don't support SB. It's just installed across the board...and runs. Doing what on such machines is a little hazy.
