It is ironic that a country that chose not to put any of its people in harm's way during the most recent Iraqi war, would subsequently lose thousands of its own citizens in a brutal heat wave. It is ironic that a country that claimed it had no links to al-Qaida terrorists, is now the location of al-Qaida-style terrorist attacks on an almost daily basis. It was ironic that a capitalistic giant and super-power, like the United States, could be so viciously wounded by a relatively small band of terrorists with Third World-style military tactics. Unfortunately, in the United States, one of the largest adopters (please note that I said adopt, not advocate or lawyer) of this system, the manipulation of the underground soft bits is only legal in Reno, Nevado, and then, only with strict regulation and mandatory health testing.įrom my local paper's letters to the editor: What makes it all worth it are the underground squishy parts that can be manipulated by experts. Most are above ground and not recessed into the soil, so the likelihood of a spring freeze can be a terrifying prospect. Linux, on the other hand, has more squishy parts. The quality of the fabrics is lacking, when one approaches from afar, the illusion of beautiful brocade is shattered by the reality that it is a print and not a weave. Always appropriate, yet never the queen of the ball.
#Xscreensaver on kde checkered image windows#
Windows is generally pointier with more peaks and cupolas, slimming, but sometimes at the expense of timelessness. I need to know what is better linux or windows and i need to know why Screenies of the whole collection may be found here xscreensaver will now automatically start with KDE unless you remove the symlink, or type "killall xscreensaver" in a terminal. You could even add this to your kde configuration menu if you're reall a fancy pants.Ĩ. To configure type "xscreensave -demo" at a run prompt or in a terminal.
When you drop it a box will ask to move/copy/link. Drag the file called "xscreensaver" to your autostart directory.Ħ. We're going to do this the easy newbie way: open two Konqueror windows, open one to /usr/x11r6/bin and the other to /home/yourname/.kde/autostart.ĥ. To make programs autostart in KDE we put a symlink to the executable in the ~.kde/autostart/ directory.Ĥ. Go to the KDE control center and disable the native screensaver, uncheck the radio box that says "start automatically" or some such phrase.ģ.
#Xscreensaver on kde checkered image install#
Install xscreensaver and whatever else you want to add to it, like openGL additions, etc.Ģ. Then I had a laughing fit because I realized how stupid I wasġ. I tried a number of scripts to make this work.
kde screensaver is lame and no fun, makes you cry with disappointment. Impress your friends with mind numbing pleasureĢ. Must say it's the best when up and running though.ġ. Takes about ten seconds with 2000 tunes, but itunes takes close to twenty and doesn't synch. Using Juk [the itunes clone} in linux, it just scans the root music directory when booting, so anything I add is added to the playlist. I've set up one folder for itunes, and imported everything in it using one profile, when I logged in as the other user the music was not recognized and I had to "add folders to library", which took a very long time ?!? The files were not copied or doubled up though.What gives? Yay! Still takes a hell of a time importing files, it'll be worth it when I'm done.Īlso a problem is sharing music between users. I'm gonna wait for vorbis support, and in the meantime use my fave lightweight windows player with great music manager: Zinfįor linux, I'm sticking with Juk, an Itunes clone, that just seems cleaner.Įdit: the Vorbis support worked suddenly after a couple reboots. c) you like to seamlessly burn playlists to disc. My conclusion: it's itunes, it's the best prog out there for music if a) you've got the horsepower to waste b) all of your formats are supported. I haven't checked, but I have a feeling it sucks exponentially more than winamp/xmms's 5-15mb. This program feels a bit beastly on my 1.1ghz/256mb box. Apparently this works on OSX so perhaps I'll wait a couple weeks before really whining. Burned a audio CD as fast as Nero.ĭownside: Quicktime will play my vorbis files just fine, but itunes doesn't recognize the o.v. The sound seemed nicer than winamp, but I'll have to reexamine that. There's no better UI for music than a simple list with clickable headers. It'll seamlessly rip and burn and put everything where it should be. From an organizational and practicality perspective, there's no better program. Well, I don't care about the store so I disabled that.
