I want to go to Arch again, but i'm lazy and the installation itself takes a fair bit of time, effort and bandwidth. Hmm...

I recently installed Arch and it didn't take long at all. No more involved than Debian's installer is really.

Linux Mint 11 with Conky (not finished)

Automated installation, post-installation shell script to add extra packages and configure everything. Store all necessary config files in a Git repo and you can pretty much just set it going and walk away to drink lots of tea. Now that is lazy.

Shiny new dwm setup on my laptop. Enjoying it so far.

Looking good

Switched from Linux Mint 11 to Fedora 15, Gnome 3 isn't that bad once when you get used to it.

Finally set up Linux on my laptop the way I like it - I've got openbox installed but am still figuring it out, but for now I spent time just working on getting gnome set up nicely. It's nothing special, Mint 11, Carbon + Faenaz, Docky. I'd like to go with a more lightweight WM as I know that it will improve the battery life on my laptop to ~4.5hrs... Soon.

Looking good though, I'm not the biggest fan of gnome (im an openbox fanboy) but that's looking quite light and lean, I'd personally lose the desktop icons though

MasterPlan1 · 20 Sep 2011 at 00:06

Tidied up docky and removed the icons on the desktop, and cut the menus down to just the foot.

Ditched Win7 on my laptop and installed Linux Mint 11, I got to say I really like it, and it looks and feels faster, and just beautiful!

Lovely backdrop

That's a really nice backdrop you have there, do you by chance have a link for it ?

I cracked and had to have a look at gnome 3.2 to see if it was as terrible as everyone makes out. You know what? It's not anywhere near as bad as I was expecting, think I'll stick to OpenBox though, old habits die hard.

Also, the opensource ati driver handles 2d and simple 3d pretty well, think I'll be sticking to it since I don't game on this OS anyway.

Oh, and screenshot of Gnome3.2 (with very minor tweaks to the panel and GTK3 theme).

^ What's the font you're using in that text editor?

Hairybudda · 19 Oct 2011 at 20:37

Its Envy Code R, size 10, rgba with full hinting

[edit] think there's even an AUR package for it

JHeaton · 19 Oct 2011 at 21:23

Indeed there is one. Thanks!

You're obviously living in the 90s and need your own thread.
