In the top right screenie, how did you get a background for nautilus?

Btw how is the series ?

ChaiTan3 said:

there are 3 ways
first one is:
1) open nautilus > edit > background and emblems
2) Click on "Add a New Pattern"
3) Browse to the desired image > press ok
4) and now drag and drop that image from the pattern to the nautilus pane.

2nd one:
1) Install Configuration editior from "Add/Remove" > System Tools > configuration editor (be sure to select "all available applications"
in the top right drop down box)
2) Now when the application is installed its shortcut will come in Applications > System Tools
3) Open it, expand apps forder in the tree on left by clicking the triangle next to it > now click on triangle next to "Nautilus " inside apps hierarchy > Click on preferences folder
4) See in the right pane there is a entry in name column named as "background_filename", next to it is value, in value paste the location of the file (image).

3rd one(completely manual method):
1) see this thread Query#7 solution *www.thinkdigit.com/forum/showpost.php?p=752186&postcount=1

Thanks, that did it.

I made it in Gimp.Took me abt 10mins i guess.
You windows guys are lucky.
Try this app here:*shellscape.org/rumshot/
It creates stunning previews for you in a click.

Oh and by "bar" you mean the bar on the top of the desk?
Thats conky.Its a configurable system monitor.
Can be tweaked to show pretty much everything

thank u for the info .... im gonna use that "bar"

@iMav
I dont know if you can run conky on windows.
And if you have a dual-boot , which *nix are you using anyways?

gutsy .... though i hardly boot coz it honestly takes ages to boot

AGEs???Its boots like a flash if unless u dont mess up with it

IMO Ubuntu's getting bloated with every install,
I remember Ubuntu 4.10 used to boot quite fast on my old P3 with 128 megs of RAM.
My advice,Get something else.Probably Fedora 8 , supposedly pretty good.
