how does your linux box look like?

Just wondering how a screenshot of your linux desktop looks like?

thanks,

Don't have a gui on mine, but my OpenBSD laptop has a basic (included) blackbox theme. I will probably spruce it up in the near future, I've just been lazy and happy with having it functional 😉

Right now I am using my laptop. (sortoff, I am not allowed to connect it to the network at work 🙁 )

It would have a very poor screenshot I am afraid. The best I could do would probably make a big picture of mozilla or something.

On that I am using ratpoison

Think of OS X. Now think of the most polar oppisite UI you can imagine. That is ratpoison. It's a window manager that doesn't use windows.

It's designed after the uber'full terminal program "screen" each new app/window gets it's own work plane and you switch back and forth using "ctrl-C + a key" emac-style button combos. The fanciest it gets is that you can devide the work plane up into 4th's. Either using vertical splits, horizontal splits, or a combination.

I use it because it's designed to eliminate the dependence for using a mouse for everything and touchpads are suxors. 😉

My desktop computer at home has a much more conventonal arrangement. Anybody have a good free webservice provider to suggest and I will post it.

ratpoison always interested me. But I've gotten used to using touchpads, so I haven't gotten around to trying it.

Not much going on in this one. I took it while going "oh, cool gnome has a screenshot feature"

I like eye candy though. Since then I've found much better fonts for my aterms and they are a different color and the fonts and term windows are much smaller (and still quite readable).

I keep my toolbar old-school mac-style with the menus were the blue gnome foot is on the left and the "open windows menu" applet over on the right. I like that much more then the windows style start menu (same thing pretty much) and "open windows list" stuff on the bottom. Then I use the tool bar as a dock for commonly used apps and my scripts for starting up xawtv/tvtime and semi-automounting cdroms and ejecting them etc etc. Don't have much there in this shot. If I was home I would have a better one.
