Linux

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

What does your desktop look like? (share.jackgreenearth.org)
submitted 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago) by JackGreenEarth@lemm.ee to c/linux@lemmy.ml
 

Here's mine. No inspiration at all taken from a certain California based company's OS ;p

I use:

  • Manjaro OS
  • GNOME desktop
  • WhiteSur icon theme (with a few icons changed in the desktop file)
  • WhiteSur GTK and shell theme
  • Bing wallpaper
  • net speed simplified
  • Logo Menu
  • Show Desktop
  • Top Bar Organiser (to move the time to the right)
  • Overview background

I apologise if I missed anything.

Long live Aero

This is amazing. It even has the classic guassian blur.

Do the light ribbons that overlay the blur remain constant like in Win7? Or are they fixed on the window borders?

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Yes, they remain constant. The theme author actually created a Plasma extension specifically for this!

That's quite amazing that someone is ab'e to replicate all those aspects of Windows' desktop environment, or whatever it's called

Now I don't know what that is

oooh wow. Defo looks like something Microsoft would do. I didn't know that existed

I wanted to install this but apparently it doesn't work with Wayland. A bummer, I love how Aero looks!

[–] SubArcticTundra@lemmy.ml 2 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Oh, this screenshot is on Wayland! I don't think the author tested it on Wayland but besides a couple of negligible glitches the only thing that's missing is the slight blue tint on the glassy panel.
