Come on man, this is the internet. We can take it.

Ya, I know. I just try to not put up NSFW stuff most of the time.

Nice wallpaper Link please?

Sure!   I am glad I decided to look back in on this thread, I usually don't.

(If you were not paying attention, warning: NSFW for language.)

Got it from http://wallbase.net/ which scrapes 4chan.org's wallpaper and high res boards. (NSFW is off by default, but that filter doesn't catch them all.)

Using the ArchModern suite.

I just added added hinting to my ~/.Xdefaults and fonts are glowing now. Hopefully my eyes will forgive me because it's too beautiful to disable. ;_;

Re: March 2010 Screenshots

how do you get pacman update?

1. A cron job which executes

pacman -Sy

every hour.

2. The following bash script used with this plasmoid: http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=23829.

#!/bin/bash

pacman -Qu > /tmp/packages 2>& 1
N=$(cat /tmp/packages | wc -l)

if [[ $N -eq 0 ]]; then
    echo "No updates available"
elif [[ $N -eq 1 ]]; then
    echo "1 new package:"
else
    echo "$N new packages:"
fi

cat /tmp/packages

Good desktop... Do you mind to share your .conkyrc file? Thank you

First post, btw!

Hi there... May I know what the icons in your traybar are? I can only recognize Dropbox...

Hi nanotube09,
I've spent a good amount of time recently customizing my panel icons They are, from left to right, adesk-menu (by the esteemed ADComp, who I met over at #!), Dropbox (which I would have changed if I could...*sigh*), checkgmail (it might be dark in the pic, no new mail), volwheel (a mod of Hanna's (also at #!) theme) and wicd. Thanks for noticing....I can ompload 'em if you want!

Re: March 2010 Screenshots

Yep, I noticed the problem with xterm... I don't know why there is this delay! (but for the moment it's not my principal problem because I use urxvt )

For the moment I don't really manage unmanaged window... First I will switch the wm from xlib to xcb (I begin yesterday, but it's painfull )

Btw, if you found other bug, please tell me by mail or add a report on github

Was using xterm temporarily as I experienced a weird issue with urxvt with font spacing, which I solved with letterSpace: -1 resource. So now I am back to the good old urxvtd -q -o -f and urxvtc

I'm on catwm ATM, will surely pull it on a regular basis to track progress. Thanks

Lady, people aren't chocolates. Do you know what they are mostly? Bastards. Bastard-coated bastards with bastard filling. But I don't find them half as annoying as I find naive bobble-headed optimists who walk around vomiting sunshine.

Re: March 2010 Screenshots

@tamtam Very nice setup and the media player on the background looks really cool!

What media player is that?

---

The software required Windows XP or better, so I installed archlinux.

I just added added hinting to my ~/.bashrc and fonts are glowing now. Hopefully my eyes will forgive me because it's too beautiful to disable. ;_;

Your fonts are perfect! I also use Envy Code R but can't get it quite like that, but very close. I recompiled freetype with Apple and MS patented bits, which improved things. I have Xft settings in .Xdefaults which are mostly used for Google Chrome. I haven't touched my default fonts/conf.d nor do I have fonts.conf in my home directory. Do you?

Especially your 'w' and 'm' letters are better.

Could you expand on your fonts setup?

Here is my current result:

Re: March 2010 Screenshots

I do but now that I am using KDE it is a little bit of a pain to setup conky.  Will give it a try on the weekend.  Thanks.

I added this to my ~/.Xdefaults:

Xft.antialias: true
Xft.hinting: true
Xft.rgba: rgb
Xft.hintstyle: hintfull

That's it. The only other thing that would affect my fonts would be my DPI setting which defaults to 101x101. I just did a fresh install so I know I haven't changed anything else.

Oh! Yeah, lol. I meant ~/.Xdefaults. I'll correct the previous two posts. Thanks.
