Marvellous May Screenshot Thread
I know it's May 2013 somewhere in the world, so here goes:
1. Stay within the board rules, no matter how hot you may believe the wallpaper/screen shot to be.
2. If you are going to quote, there isn't a need to quote an img-embeded picture - Just don't do it. Please just reference the post by page number/page link/etc.
3. Off Topic Posts will be edited or removed.
4. The desktops thread is not to be used as a means to post explicit or suggestive, and provocative images (they must be safe for your kids and/or boss to see). Please help to keep the thread relevant and safe to browse for everyone.
5. The moderators of this forum reserve the right to edit or remove your posts as necessary so they may comply with our Community Rule set.
6. Please use reduced-size thumbnails, out of respect for people running on lower bandwidth or screen resolutions.
7. To avoid having users having to ask you for them. when possible we request that you format your posts in the following order: NOTE this is optional
Themes: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).
Wallpaper: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).
Icons: Name/where you got it (with link would be nice).

I've never had a prob with audio (or lack thereof) but...
Many others did have audio issues, during testing.
It seems to center around whichever Linux kernel version you are using.
I would judge that the Linux 3.9 mainline kernel works best for most ppl, based on what I've read in the threads... ;)

thanks. I thought that's what I was running :) I'll have to check but it may also be a VirtualBox issue. It may not be building all the guest modules correctly.
edit: well hmmm... I tried the kernel and even with the matching headers VirtualBox doesn't want to build. oh well, I'll see what happens :)

I decided to make the switch to Gnome Shell. My setup pretty vanilla, but I like how it works out of the box. Don't see a big need to customize it. I'll be keeping KDE on my work computer, though.

And, yes, that's the_way_I_roll -- can't stand it, when things_just_work.
Probably some sort of psychological defect, I suppose. But...

Testing out FreeBSD. Well, GhostBSD anyways. Just don't got the patience for regular FreeBSD, and prefer to have a GUI right away :lol:, and hey, although there may be an issue with GhostBSD 3.0's graphical package manager, the command-line works fine. :)

I was using GNOME-DO when I was in XFCE, now that my PC is more capable I'm using Gnome fallback mode and Synapse.
But regarding how to screenshot synapse, I used the Screenshot tool, set it to capture after 5 secs and then I fire synapse. A few seconds later, boom! :) I hope it works in XFCE.

I'm running 13.04 right now and it works fine, had to do a clean install as clicking "upgrade" messed everything up (my fault, had who knows how many PPAs in 12.10), but still.

No, It's a Sun Parasol Pretty Crimson (mandevilla hybrid). It's a manic climber and if I don't keep it constrained in a basket it tries to kidnap my neighbour's girlfriend. The Flowers are so colour intense my camera's CCD (Nikon) was being over-saturated and not doing the flower justice.

I couldn't really tell, even when the leaves didn't quite look like a hibiscus, but was wondering about the flower.
