"Hikari ni nare"? Isn't that, Django or whatnot? Or am I mistaken?

I think the talking killer whale speaketh truthfully.  So says the talking killer pig....  Â¬Â¬

In any event, the verdict on Mandriva 2009 + KDE4 is in....

I LOVE IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!  ^v^

Certainly not for the faint of heart as there's lots of first-product bugs to slug through.  But once there out of the way, the true potential is unleashed.  

Sorry to say time is short, but I know I'm gonna have fun with this.

Will be right back to continue...

Wow!  I disappear for freakin one week... ONE WEEK!  ...and Acher shows up out of the blue.  Long time no see and good timing (the extra posts are welcomed).  

What a Linuxy icon theme you have (I know it as "Crystal SVG").  

Deep in the recesses of the kDE4 Subversion files there is experimental support for multiple wallpapers, making it the second Desktop Environment (besides Enlightenment) to have that capability natively.  Would've tried to play around with it, but too busy playing with Intrepid Ibex still.  

Speaking of playing, I got a little curious about Plymouth in Fedora Core 10.  Virtualbox is probably not the best place to show it off, but did like everything else I saw.  Has a very nice Gnome setup, but the KDE4 one is en par with Mandriva's.... -v-

So shiny....is it running Compiz?

BTW, I finally... finally... googled Kawaii Radio. It certainly delivers what its name promises (But somehow I now want to go out and find all of SOUL'd OUT's records).

Uhm...not my screenshot, but hopefully it will be someday if I can get a powerful enough computer to run a good emulator and a hobbyist license!

Nope.  ^__^
It's on pure Kwin4 Compositing -- think of it as a native version of Compiz Fusion for KDE4.  The plugins and effects definitely share a lot of similarities and it certainly helps cut down on resource use not having to load a separate composite manager on top of kwin.  Unfortunately, since the KDE4 codebase still requires more optimization (easier to do later once everything is written and running stable), KDE4+Compositing is still a bit of a resource hog.  It's no small wonder they call it the "Vista" of the Linux world.  -v-;

It's funny how much I liked the Gurren Lagann music it played regularly, even if I didn't realize at the time it was from Gurren Lagann (or what "Gurren Lagann" was).

Then again, also watched Ichigo 100% because of Kawaii Radio, and it sucketh. Guess you can't win it all.... ;__;

Fufufu... VMS-sama does get to the point, doesn't she?  ^___^;

Darn... Photobucket.... ;~;

[NejinOniwa]

Try a proxy when you've got photobucket problems is my tip. PHProxy for FX for example, is a jolly-good-ol' favorite. If you're too lazy you can just try http://wep9.com/ which is what I use when I need one.

.............Zuh?  ''

Well besides that, it sounds like it won't be work-safe either.  ^^'

Not to worry though -- I can see your screenshot as fine as day at home.  Looks very nice -- although I think the wallpaper could be done by the same artist as mine since the surreal landscape style is eerily similar.  ^.^

[although in my screenshot, Virtualbox is covering up the sunset]

yup, thats a crystal Tux theme ^^

is that XP?

[NejinOniwa]

is that XP?

Yep. XP with 5 teaspoons of I-Can't-Believe-It's-Not-Vistaids! powder added. Just add water. ^^

Here is Mac OS 10.4 with an imitation Mac OS 9 interface!

[Acher13]

/\ Nice ^^

[C-Chan]

Ditto.  ^^

However... seems to only affect the panels, not the windows themselves.... ;___;

[Aurora Borealis]

You can't see it from the screenshot, but the close/min/max buttons look like the ones from Mac OS 9, and the window bars that aren't the brushed metal kind have the Platinum look too
