Very Simple

Thanks, to the person who posted the wallpaper in the clean desktop section. :D

BTW my mom loves it :p
 
New to linux, running this on my main rig for a folding/myth backend/gaming system. TF2 running in wine :D.

Standard Ubuntu 64-bit, Avant Window Manager bar, no compiz or beryl. Running on an 8800gt.

Third workspace looks exactly like the first.
 
I got bored with my setup, and decided that I wanted to try out a dark desktop theme for a while.
Xubuntu 7.10, I borrowed and customised some existing themes for amarok, conky, gtk, emerald, and kde

Linked for 2.5mb

KDE 4.0.1 on Debian Lenny/Sid, kernel 2.6.24. Only thing that doesn't work so far is suspend to ram, which sucks... But other than that, I like it.
 
Introduction to scientific reasoning... we're reading Dewey. Dear god, kill me now, kinda thing.

Also I have the image that wallpaper is from somewhere if you'd like it.
 
Decided to pop my Linux cherry this week. (Spring break) I had fooled around with it but never gone over completely. Here is my Ubuntu (latest build 7.10) with conky and Avant window manager.

You have PM disabled to i'll ask here. How did you integrate Conky on your desktop. I have the application installed on 7.10 however I can't find a way to have it integrated in my desktop as you have on your screenshot. Do you mind helping me out?
 
First open terminal and install conky

Code:
 sudo apt-get install conky

next create a config file for conky to read from

Code:
 sudo gedit

when the file opens paste the following example script. Once pasted save it as ".conkyrc" ( with out quotes ) into your home directory ( mine is /home/wikkid ). The file might disappear right away or it wont untill your next reboot, when it does and your browsing your files click on view and show hidden files to edit when ever you want.

Code:
# UBUNTU-CONKY
# A comprehensive conky script, configured for use on
# Ubuntu / Debian Gnome, without the need for any external scripts.
#
# Based on conky-jc and the default .conkyrc.
# INCLUDES:
# - tail of /var/log/messages
# - netstat connections to your computer

Now add a dbe module to /etc/X11/xorg.conf to reduce flickering.

Code:
sudo gedit /etc/X11/xorg.conf

find the section titled Section “Module”, and add the following line

Code:
Load “dbe”

Now if you have compiz installed you will need a delayed start up script.

Code:
sudo gedit

add this into the file and save it in your home directory again as ".conky_start.sh" ( without quotes ). mine is set to 15 second delay but you may want to change it to suit your computer. You cant have it start right away with compiz because compiz will draw shadows under it if the script starts to soon.

Code:
#!/bin/bash
sleep 60 && conky;

Make sure the script is executable: in terminal type

Code:
chmod a+x .conky_start.sh

now add the file .conky_start.sh to your start up list (menu: system->preferences->session->startup programs)

to see if it loads for you hit Alt+F2 and type in conky and hit enter and see if it loads. if it does, in your terminal window type "reboot", hit enter, log back in and wait the time you set into the delay script and see if it loads properly
