I'm using a simple devilspie script to force AWN to stay above the panel and other windows. Everything can be found at Gnome-Look. Still on Jaunty, no breakage yet :D

Test driving Ubuntu Jaunty.

Everything I'm using for my setup can be found here. Sorry, I don't remember exactly where the wallpaper is from, but judging by the filename I'd say it's from 4chan's...

Same issue here, seems to have been down more than a week now.

Given the Eee900 costs £350 here, I'd imagine the 901 to be at least £400. Why buy one when you could have an Advent Netbook for £280 which has:

* Intel Atom Processor N270
* (1.6 GHz,...

Testing out Ibex at the moment. I quite like the "New Human" theme, and I'm not usually a fan of dark themes. The fact that you can change the brown to any colour you like in the Customize dialog is...

Sure there is, check out the WinGnome.XP project here (MurrinaFancyClearlooks is particularly nice).

Gimped various parts together.

Desktops: 5 years

Banshee completely screwed over my whole media collection last time I used it (6 months ago). Is it safe to say it's more stable now?

Just got a new laptop, and it's fast enough to run Compiz and Emerald with no stability issues :D

Alas, the English have yet to discover the joys of building a cup holder into everything.

I mow on one of these beasts:

10 whole horse power of lawn maintenance!

Installed OpenSUSE 11.0 RC1 today. It's slick, clean and fast. I still prefer DEB package management to RPM, though. Nothing exciting in my theme, but I'll upload my stripes for you :)

My 68 year old Grandma uses it daily :D

My light Debian setup passed TruStealth. I haven't even manually added any security beyond the base netinstall system (w/o desktop).

I'm 18, and I'm hoping to start a Chemistry/Biochemistry degree at University in September (which I'll be using Ubuntu as a study compantion for). I use Ubuntu for work, rest and play. I legally...

Well, I maintain 4 computers (3 are family machines). They are:

Grandmother's PC: Debian Lenny - AMD64x2 1.8GHz 2GB RAM
General Family PC: Ubuntu Gutsy - Pentium 4HT 3GHz 786MB RAM
Mum's Laptop:...

1 for not realising ROMs are illegal.

I have a Windows shower, then. Doen't understand that there's a happy temperature between freezing and scalding!

apt-get install linuxlogo

then use the linux_logo command

My hard drive just failed on my laptop, so until my new one arrives, I'm running a light Debian Lenny setup from an old USB hard drive.

I miss her :(

How much wood would a woodchuck chuck if a woodchuck could chuck wood?

Comment out the volumes in /etc/fstab to stop them mounting at boot.
