Share your Gnome desktop

I've switched to Gnome on my EEE 901.
Things are running fine now.

I'm curious, if a lot of people use Gnome here, and if so, how does it look!

Re: Share your Gnome desktop

Archers seem to love more lightweight solutions like Openbox etc... Or KDE.

I run Gnome on my desktop daily basis and I'm fully satisfied. I'm planning to move to Gnome 3 if it comes out.

I liked and used KDE when the version was 3. After 4 came out, it disappointed me and now I don't want to go back, at least now.

My screenshot from December thread: click

I'm too lazy these days to hassle with GTK/Metacity themes. OOB experience is enough for me -- working fast stable desktop.

Give what you have. To someone, it may be better than you dare to think.

Exactly, but none for Gnome!
Like mentioned, it's Archers go for more lightweight stuff.
Thx for all the replies so far.

@sausageandeggs

That's one beautifull setup!

Would you mind sharing:

- Gnome theme
- Conky script(s?)
- Weather script
- Wallpaper

Thanks!

Sven

Nice one too!

How did you manage to get that Firefox menu to be on top and separated from it's own window?

Re: Share your Gnome desktop

Here you go Sven, the Gnome theme is elegant gnome with nautilus elementary.
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39541
http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=39246

Window decoration is an emerald theme, I've put that, the wallpaper and all the conky stuff in a tarball for you to grab.

You'll need a couple of other pkg's installed if you want to get conky exactly the same, details in the tarball.

Enjoy!! smile

I use the Liberation fonts package (ttf-liberation) from the community repo. The font in the terminal window is Liberation Mono @ 14 points.

Thanks! But I mean, what are your font settings? Could you post a screenshot with the settings window open?

AWN theme: Divergence IV
Covergloobus theme: Ibex
Conky: this
Icon theme: Faenza Dark
gnome-globalmenu in the gnome menu.

The apps in the second screenshot is just PCManFM-mod, rhythmbox and urxvtc showing cmatrix and ascii hypnotoad.
