Is this some kind of weird troll?

[RiceMonster]

1) A Qt theme
2) You would want it if you think it looks good, you use KDE, and because you can customize it to make it look as you like
3) http://kde-look.org/content/show.php/Bespin?content=63928. Follow the download link to get the svn sources

No. Not everyone is a troll.

Lol, I first thought he was talking about the famous cloud city planet...

Second I thought he was talking about this. https://mozillalabs.com/bespin/

And then after I read the rest of the thread it seems other people thought something completely different.

[Cam42]

I was waiting for someone to say that. :D


No, I'm not a troll. Asking a few questions, and I was trying to get them asked before I had to restart Firefox.

I'm confused.

I don't mean to be rude, your post just read very oddly.

It seemed like you couldn't be bothered to Google it, that's all.

Drink more coffee.

That's not a valid reason in the slightest to consider the OP a troll.

Good idea! :)

Did Google it, I was still quite tired when I read the info Google gave me, and was hoping someone could explain it better.

[scottuss]

Edit: Just read above post, made mine defunct.

OK, fair point. Let's leave this alone now eh? :)

Coffee all round!? :)

[Tibuda]

It is a gas planet. They have made a city in the clouds there.

What bespin are you talking about?

Bespin - KDE Theme
Bespin - Mozilla Labs
Bespin - The Planet

[Cam42]

KDE. Again, Firefox was 'bout to restart.

Yes. *gives coffee*

Then I assume RiceMonster has solved the riddle.

my first thought was the same. oh Lando Calrissian, what hath thou wrought!

[Cam42]

It doesn't seem to like openSUSE. Help?

[LinuxFanBoi]

One cool thing came of this thread, I learned about lmgtfy.com, so I can be a sarcastic *** to people who come to a forum to ask questions they should have Googled first!:D

Provide more information

[Cam42]

Provide more information
I open up Konsole, it first tells me that access is denied to ./configure (in the cloudcity folder), and then it tells me that make/make install are invalid commands.
EDIT: I should probably run Konsole in super user mode, right?

[Cam42]

Oh, and I had to download the tarball, instead of going the svn route, Konsole told me that svn was not installed.

No, you should only run make install as root. did you run svn as root to get the source? Don't do that; get the source as a normal user somewhere in your home folder. You can probably fix the problem as is by doing

chown -R user_name /path/to/source/dir/

Also, it says make and make install are not commands because you don't have make installed. I don't know what the package would be called, or if there's some build tools group package you can install in OpenSuSE. You're probably going to have to install gcc and g++ as well.

Install it then. It's probably called subversion or something like that.

Careful using that. I just got a Mod Warning for it. :|
