What’s new about this one?, well… everything!!. I’ll start by saying that the icons have been resized to 48×48 and in this resize process every icon got modified :) . This release is compliant with FreeDesktop.org’s Icon Naming Specification (just like Giøn). It also includes 22×22, 24×24, 48×48 and 128×128 PNGs (for those of you who prefer use PNGs instead of SVG for performance) 16×16 is coming in the final release.

It's entirely possible that you may not have heard of Linux. Maybe you own a Mac or Windows computer and don't read the technology news. You may have a TiVo, but it doesn't have a huge sticker on the box that reads "Powered by Linux" (even though it is). You may use Google, but it doesn't have any announcement on its homepage that it's run on Linux servers (even though it is). Whether you've heard of Linux or not--it probably plays a role in your life somehow.

Computing > Linux narky Tue, 05 Sep 2006 14:37:29 GMT http://doc.gwos.org/index.php/Desktop_EyeCandy I write this HOWTO, I got alot of PMs on how to do this and how to that because of my Screenshots I've added to the Gallery. So I made this simple HOWTO on the basics changes to make a desktop look mean, clean killing machine. I'll add some more to the howto continuesly. NB. Don't Pm me about the icons. All of them I've gathered throughout the web and added to my desktop manually. Most of them are copyrighted/trademarked etc. So I won't transfer them. Sorry.

The possibilities are really endless and they are always there to serve you whenever you need them, just one key-press away. The system is not restricted to one desktop environment, but currently works on most of the modern Unix desktops (including GNOME, KDE, Xfce). Computing > Linux > Software narky Wed, 06 Sep 2006 15:12:48 GMT http://www.gnome.org/projects/NetworkManager/ Networking on Linux right now is painful for the mobile desktop user, especially in comparison to other operating systems. A laptop user should never need to use the command line or configuration files to manage their network; it should "Just Work" as automatically as possible and intrude as little as possible into the user's workflow. NetworkManager attempts to make networking invisible. When moving into areas you've been before, NetworkManager automatically connects to the last network the user chose to connect to. Likewise, when back at the desk, NetworkManager will switch to the faster, more reliable wired network connection.
