Really nice, one of the best I've seen for a while here. Great colour coordination. spectrwm looks very cool.
Just amazing, looks like something out of Portal 2. I don't understand it at all, but it looks great.None1975 wrote:Xmonad

You all always posting same modern standard ugly styles/themes lookalike, try something different, i created by myself my own theme:

Bruh.
What's your rationale behind using a blue qt theme with an orange desktop theme?

Re: What does your desktop look like?
This is a Debian Testing XFCE desktop which I adapted on someone's demand to look as much as possible like a Ubuntu 17.04 with Unity desktop. The one who asked me was used to Unity, but he wanted a rolling release and wasn't too thrilled about the notion that Canonical is planning to drop Unity in favor of Gnome3.

Sorry comment off topic.

Really if a good rolling release is your goal you probably are better off with another distro. The biggest reason to use testing should be because you actually want to help test it for the next Debian release.
Re: What does your desktop look like?
Yes, it is. There's a freeze when the new Stable is being prepared, but after that it migrates seamlessly to the new Testing.pawRoot wrote:^ but Debian testing isn't rolling, or is it ?
You only need to make sure that the name 'Buster' in sources.list is replaced by "testing" everywhere.
Although you could the same for Stable (replacing 'stretch' by 'stable' in sources.list), I wouldn't recommend that because the upgrade to a new stable would have to jump about two years ahead and that won't be seamlessly, to say the least.

Testing is fine for desktop systems. Stable can be as well, but if you'd like more recent versions of software you could try Testing. I wouldn't use Sid (Unstable) unless you know your way around a root terminal.
I have used Debian Testing for several of my desktop systems for quite a few years now and haven't encountered any problems. The last year, I even started using Sid for my desktop.
If you need to install a server, stick to Debian Stable.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
It's probably more accurate to think of Testing as a rolling development version, rather than a rolling release as such. Arch, Gentoo etc are rolling releases since those releases receive small, frequent updates and are fully independent. This is different to Debian Testing, which exists to find fixes for another release, notably Stable. So yes, Testing is indeed rolling, but the difference lies in its cause.Bloom wrote:Yes, it is.

Re: What does your desktop look like?
After much deliberation I went for the LXQt desktop option:
^ That's the vanilla configuration, tweakage will happen.
EDIT: some configuration later:
It's pretty but the Gtk integration sucks

Re: What does your desktop look like?
I always liked LXDE so I have a soft spot for LXQt, however, I never had much luck printing from qt based pdf viewers, whether Okular or qpdfview...always had to install Atril, Evince etc... which seemed silly, even had this problem on KDE (regardless of distro). Have you noticed this before? Not meant as a thread hijack....
Re: What does your desktop look like?
I'm playing around with Gnome-Shell on Stretch (feel kinda dirty...lol)

very true, its closer to Slackware-current then Arch or a "true" rolling release.
