You use Linspire.... What is that weather tool you are using ? Also what media player do you use ? How do I get that song ticker

 

[mehulved]

@eddie cool desktop. Is it Gentoo? Tell me how you got it? I am trying to install gentoo once again today.

No its not linspire. I will never touch that distro with a 100ft pole. The weather tool you see is superkaramba widget "liquid weather++" and the media player i am using is amaroK. The sound ticker is another widget named soundmania". You can find both of them on kde-look.org

@eddie cool desktop. Is it Gentoo? Tell me how you got it? I am trying to install gentoo once again today.

Thanks . Yeah it is Gentoo with KDE 3.5 and here is how i made it.
Wallpaper is from kde-look or may be it came with the style Baghira.
Icons are glaze from kde-look.
Font is a handel gothic. Superkaramba widgets i told in my previous post.
For taskbar, it is kbfx applet (replacing kmenu button) with a panel background. Done

 

[mehulved]

How did you get kde 3.5? I want to try it out too? And you using X-org 7.0? I guess x-org 7 is needed for compiz and NLD? I wanna try em out. Am looking forward to custominsing my desky using some ideas formk yours.

 

[vignesh]

Where can I find this liquid weather++...I use Ubuntu 5.10 ...

@prakash: One correction there on using aterm. I figured out how we can get transparency using gnome-terminal,
[RIGHT CLICK] --> [Edit Current Profile...] --> Throws up a dialog
Select [Effects] tab and then click [Transparent Background] radio button, and we have a transparent terminal!!

 

[Satissh S]

Check my new fluxbox desky!! How's it??

KDE 3.5 sources are available since quite long and the binaries are provided by almost every distro. Which one are you using? I am not using Xorg 7.0 yet. It is still hard masked on Gentoo and will install it only once it comes under testing

As far as NLD is concerned, I don't have any inclination towards using it just yet.

 

[eddie]

Ubuntu uses Gnome. liquid weather++ is a widget for superkaramba which in turn requires KDE
You'll have to install KDE or look out for a similar widget under gdesklets.
