hitbox.champion:woah!is it using compiz-fusion?and i wonder how much RAM and which GFX card do u have
too cool to say!yes,screw thumbnails,but occassionally!

Then,
Introducing the real 3D Compiz!

Wodor has hacked together an anaglyph plugin for Compiz that turns ordinary monitor into a real 3D one. The blurry image you see below is an anaglyph rendered by the plugin, you need 3D glasses or use anything transparent red (left eye) and cyan(right eye) to view the magic.

click here to view it enlarged, you should see desktop icons drop back and windows floating in air.​

Although I do not think that people would be wearing funny glasses all day long to work on their PC, possibilities this plugin presents are quite exciting for gamers and everyone wanting to show off the ‘real’ 3D desktop.​

The plugin is in testing/unstable/unsupported home:cyberorg git repository.​

PS: I realised Mac4Lin has reached places I hadn't imagined. In the screenshot above cyberorg is using the Mac4Lin icon and GTK theme!!!

well,sometimes it is up,then down

 

[infra_red_dude]

Actually now that Mac4Lin has become famous, I'm worried Hope I'm not sued. I think I'll be removing the Apple icon from the next release, just to be safe.

 

[Hitboxx]

Don't worry, Steve Apple is not Steve Microsoft

 

[infra_red_dude]

Can't say. What MS did to Kol... we haf every chances of Apple doing the same.

My latest at work (I used to have WinXP running on the dual core and Gentoo running on the Celeron, but I took the time to swap them around when our SQL Server dev machine got upgraded (making it usable for work haha) since all I really need WinXP for is testing our webapps in IE6/7). I decided to follow the seamlessrdp guide so I could use both monitors on my Gentoo box, and it's working out nicely =)

After a lot of arguing with a friend who is an ardent fan of Linux Mint...I have just installed Daryna on my laptop last night. After fiddling with gnome for about half an hour, here is the result...

nice effects!@faraaz,are u shifting to mint from ubuntu

 

[faraaz]

Well...I removed all the things about Mint that used to piss me off...so for the moment, apart from that annoying menu, everything else is the same as Ubuntu stock...

But yeah...its a bit overloaded with stuff I don't need and need to streamline it...otherwise its okay...
