View Full Version : [ubuntu] Getting Mac and vista behavior, not looks

I personally don't particularly care for the way windows or mac looks. However, both have their unique strengths and their particular weaknesses. I'm not looking to start a thread to bash on either, but what different programs/adjustments/tricks do you all use to get the productivity that you get on a mac or windows computer, but all combined onto ubuntu?

I, for instance, am a huge fan of Gnome-Do. It cleanly replaces docks, menus, desktop shortcuts, media remotes, weather desklets, log out buttons, email shortcuts, the list goes on. That and a conky script are enough for me to never use a panel again.

What the heck??? Tell me what you CAN'T do with Ubuntu that you can't do as far as "Getting Mac and Vista behavior" is concerned?
What are specifically wanting to do with Ubuntu that you did with the other OS's?

whoa, chill out. the question was what people liked to emulate, i wasn't implying there was anything that couldn't be.

For Windows Explorer there's a plugin called Foldersize, it shows the size of Folders in List View. I really miss that. Sometimes I use Windows just for that. The number of items in Nautilus is useless for me. And the Disk Usage Analyzer is no useful alternative.

Well the only thing I like from windows an/or or make is the explorer in windows and the menu for mac.

So I just use the global main menu and gnome-do.

Hi. I use compiz-fuzion for emulating (and taking one step further) Mac expose style handling using hot corners. Can't comment about Windows 7, since I'll never know anything about it other than "it's out."

If you want to try my settings for compiz-fuzion, I've attached my config. Just open up Compiz's settings manager --> go to the bottom right and select preferences --> and import the config file (don't worry, you can easily go back to your previous config using the selection box.

Hot corners:

LeftUpper - expo
LeftLower - show desktop
RightUpper - scale windows from current workspace
RightLower - sclae windows from all workspaces

I actually like this a lot better than OS X. In fact, Ubuntu and Arch Linux dual boot on my macbook with no OS X anywhere to be found.

The file is not attaching... guess we'll do this the hard way. Copy and past the text below into a new file, save it, and import it to CCSM.

Hi. I use compiz-fuzion for emulating (and taking one step further) Mac expose style handling using hot corners. Can't comment about Windows 7, since I'll never know anything about it other than "it's out."

If you want to try my settings for compiz-fuzion, I've attached my config. Just open up Compiz's settings manager --> go to the bottom right and select preferences --> and import the config file (don't worry, you can easily go back to your previous config using the selection box.

Hot corners:

LeftUpper - expo
LeftLower - show desktop
RightUpper - scale windows from current workspace
RightLower - sclae windows from all workspaces

I actually like this a lot better than OS X. In fact, Ubuntu and Arch Linux dual boot on my macbook with no OS X anywhere to be found.


ha. its funny that you post now, i actually just the other day went and set all these up. after using ubuntu for about 2 years, i hadn't bothered with hot corners til now. i go upper left for a window picker through scale, which looks great, and then bottom left for show desktop. upper right is a widget layer with a clock and battery meter. nothing has won the lower right corner yet.

I'm curious, am i using expo wrong or do i just not care for it? all it does for me is open up all my 3 desktops into one big wall. that, to me, isn't particularly useful.

You can also move a window between workplaces using expo.

ahh! i see. somewhere i knew that, thats just one of those things that i forget to actually implement.

actually my favorite part about ubuntu is that there are so many different ways to do things, and discovering a slightly different, slightly more helpful way everytime i boot up is awesome.
