I think that the spinning cube helps some people realize what virtual desktops are and how they are used. I never really even used virtual desktops before I had XGL/AIGLX I hear alot of people say it's all eyecandy and they would never even use it. I do find alot of it usefull and I enjoy using my ...

How do you move the cube freestyle where you can keep it on the screen in mid turn and also see the top or bottom? What is that thing called where you sort of minimize all the windows to thumbnails and can pick a window? I have this happen from time to time but I never know what I did to make it ha...

Where did you get 0.1.2 or did you compile it? I could not find 0.1.2 packaged.

Here's the repo that I use.

I created a symbolic link from my firefox plugins dir to my opera plugins dir and in opera when i do opera:plugins it shows all the plugins including mplayer-plugin but no worky....

Everyone is aware that you can achieve a similar menu set-up with plain ol' KDE 3.x and Konqueror with the use of "View Profiles"... In this screenshot I have two instances of Konqueror running for demonstration purposes. http://www.virtualsky.net/blogpics/custom-menus-screenshot-small.jpg In fact,...

So Unique, you gonna try SLED 10? Has other benefits than just that GNOME menu you know, not that Ubuntu doesn't have it's by any means. If you see my last screenshot I am running SLED 10. I signed up with novell to get updates and have used packman's repo for all the goodies. It has been on my lap...

It looks pretty nice. Do you find it functional? Also where could one get that mplayer skin? At first I didn't like it. Now I love it! It's fresh, clean and I prefer it over the standard Gnome menu. I like being able to add programs to the "Favorite Applications" screen. I also like that Beagle is ...

My main problem is that by doing that I would loose the battery gnome-power-manager. It just would not functi...
