Can someone please send me some screenshots of a KDE 4.3 desktop cube in openSUSE 11.2 Milestone 8? I want to see how the cube looks like in openSUSE; I’ve only seen it properly in Fedora.
I finished installing 11.2 milestone8 KDE-4.3.1 on my sandbox PC (athlon-1100 with 1GB RAM and with nVidia GeForce FX5200 ) about an hour ago.

Come on oldcpu… you can at least show different wallpapers on each side of the cube and a video wrapped around the edge/corner
Thanks, that helped a lot.
But could you send a screenshot from a different position? Like a position that shows part of the top of the cube as well.
The top & bottom of the cube are not desktops and so you can put any image on them you like, no need to preview that !
Don’t the top and bottom of the cube preview the KDE logo? In Fedora KDE Edition it’s like that… :\
One more thing: the Fedora cube is translucent as well; you can see other desktops (although unclearly) through one side of the cube… I guess I like the way Fedora implements the cube better than the way openSUSE does it.
Come on…
Compiz-fusion is not different in Fedora or openSuSE, just like Kwin in openSuse is not all that different from compiz-fusion.
The translucent cube is a matter of settings, just like top & bottom for the cube and … by the way … all settings under Linux.
But I think you should go back to Fedora or even better window$.
I HATE Windows, I hate Aero, and I hate Luna, and I hate the way Windows works in general. And I hate closed source software. I’m not better off with Windows than with Linux. Whether I use Fedora or openSUSE, I’m still a member of the Linux community. All distros are LINUX, not anything else. Right now, Fedora works fine for me. I am considering a move to OpenSuSE, but the final decision is mine.
Whew… Getting a bit off-topic… Must stop now.
You sound like you do not understand dat the things you mention are not distro specific, but are the same for all Linux distro’s.
Why do you think that Fedora would have a translucent cube and openSuSE would not ?
Can you grasp that these things are all just settings ?
OK… OK… I understand. I was getting a bit hysterical. Thanks for helping me!
I’ll post another help question on how to change the openSUSE logo at the top and bottom of the cube to something else (like the KDE logo).
I am NOT a big fan of showing off my desktop, especially that on a sandbox PC where I just installed and have made no effort to optimise.
Still, since you asked:

Oh… That doesn’t look bad; quite good in fact. Thanks!

Is there a particular reason you are trying to push someone to a
different distro?

Hey, how did you get the KDE logo on top instead of the openSUSE one? Could you explain to me how to do it?
I don’t use SUSE branded KDE but the stock mainstream one

This is compiz running on 11.2 M8
The options you need to check for top and bottom sides are under “cube caps”

Woo Hoo! Haven’t been around the forums in a while and look what happened to “oldcpu” while I was gone!
Nice desktop you’ve got there. When did you switch to KDE4 (or is that only for your sandbox)?
Hello
This is 3D desk with compiz (not kwin)
