@jedi: I'm borrowing it. I'll call it compton heavy if you don't mind. 

This is another cool and excessive one I've borrowed from brontosaurusrex. It's called "a lot of compton" (Named by him).

This is my dual core centrino Thinkpad T400 with 8Gb's of RAM and a 256Gb Liteonit SSD drive.  (a $150.00 dollar US purchase off of ebay!)  Had been playing with Arch and awesomewm.  One thing that seriously has impressed me is that the Xsession-errors file is only 65Kb.  That is after 90+ days of uptime.  Just using it as a regular daily user, i.e. checking email (icedove) browsing (Chrome) editing configs (medit, and ok, yes a little playing with Vim) GMusicBrowser,  Mpd+Ncmpcpp, using Zsh for the shell and urxvt-unicode for terminal.  LibreOffice.  Also has luakit and mutt configured.  Scrot from Jan 2nd.  Still up and running...



As you can see from the pacman widget at the top I need to do a 'pacman -Syu'...

This will shortly become, once again, my main VSIDO test box!

Been too long since Ms. Beckinsale has graced our forum -



Fvwm + xmobar

Edit -

Void linux is a solid distro but it wasn't playing well with the intel graphics on my HP, so back to familiar territory -

[VastOne]

^ WOW @ kate   

and too bad about Void

[PackRat]

Void linux is solid - they're going to be around a while. If anyone is looking for a minimal distro with a good selection of packages I recommend Void (more so than Arch even). Their package system is git based, if you're the type that likes to customize/contribute they have a system n place to clone their github so you can become a developer/contributor. The main devs appear to be pretty cool.

pretty much set up now -



the wall is from vlad studio.

Keep on keepin'...

Trios-info is a based on archey. I made a GTK version.

[PackRat]

^ share the wall please.

trios mia looks like an interesting distro; you helping to develop it?

ripping some cd's while it snows:

[jedi]

Tweaking on Compton a bit.  I've got my lappy so well tuned, I'm having a hard time getting myself to rebuild it.  I did go so far as to dl the new ISO's and they do boot fine on metal and in a VM!



the compton.conf is posted in the thread for compton configs here

[VastOne]

^ What about another partition?
