October 2009 Screenshot Thread

I thought it was about time someone started an October thread.

I’m quite pleased with my efforts so far, clean, neat, functional, and (in my opinion) more “professional” looking.

OS: openSUSE 11.1 64bit with 2.6.31.41 kernel
DM: KDE 4.3.1
Wallpaper: came with my HP laptop
Style: kde4-qtcurve
Borders: Aurorae decoration engine with the “Glowglass Cupertino” theme (downloaded through the “get new themes” button)
Plasma theme: Oxygen, Icons: kde4-OS-K (kdelook.org)

Here is my OpenSuse 11.2 Milestone 8 desktop.

I just removed a couple of icons from the panel and grabbed the Mustang wallpaper from Desktop Nexus. I was shooting for a clean modern look and am pretty happy with the result.

I fully agree.

Do you have also problems with aurorae (lags on window maximize/minimize)?

Thankyou sir.

Thankyou too.

I like it so much I might even keep it for a whole week! I’m hopeless when it comes to desktop customisation, I’m never satisfied. The only thing that’s annoying me now is those blasted taskbar spacers, I make then really small, but they keep resetting to a bigger size. Things like that drive me up the wall.

Erm, a bit I guess, not to the point of being irritating, and to be honest I never noticed till you pointed it out!

It seems to “stutter” a little when minimising, but not really that bad.

I’m going to be installing milestone8 this weekend (I hope!), and I’ll give it a try under there to see if it’s any smoother. That will eliminate any problem I might have introduced in my current install.

Seeing as I’ve been having horrendous problems with my DVD writer for the last few days, I need to find out if it’s a software problem or not anyway.

BTW I’m using the 185.18.36 Nvidia driver if that makes any difference.

BAH! BTW who’s stupid idea was it to limit images in a post to 4? It counts smileys as images!!!

This is a vBulletin default IIRC and IMHO a good one, too.

A very effective prevention against “postings” from some 3xTr3m3 k3wl K1|>z, who think that smilies are the new way of using punctuation.

Not posted my desk for a few weeks, Have not been theme’in

Hi!!

I use the same driver with an 8800 GT. I think it’s not a driver problem, it has something to do with aurorae itself.
I’m shure they can fix this until 4.4 ;).

And here’s mine for October:
