Screenshots after initial installation of the Mandriva Powerpack theme in 2024.0 Beta 2:



With the Fairyworld icon theme:



More just for the heck of it:



Screenshots with the Mandriva One theme in 2024.0 Beta 2:



Compiz (Expo) in Mandriva 2024.0, Beta 2 (Powerpack theme):



On the cube, the skydome is a wallpaper I picked up at a favorite wallpaper site:



Stunning art work if you ask me. I just can't understand the quality of the screenshot of the cube -- I was keeping it perfectly still when it shot. Keep in mind I haven't done anything special with this desktop yet. Just did minimal setup for now.

You are running that with twelve desktops?

I only have four setup and I still lose apps!

No, it was with 6 at the time. Not 12. Remember, the diff between Viewports and desktops.

I had set it in that one shot to show 2 rows of them.

In CCSM, check this out:



See that Vertical Virtual Size there? That's what gives the two rows in the Expo, when I set that to 2. I also have the Expo set to show the reflection.

The Horizontal Virtual setting is what gives the number of Viewports.

The number of desktops I keep to four.

Oh, and that blue icon with the white arrow down there in the System Tray? That's fusion-icon. I can start/stop compiz at will now, without having to logout/login every time. Very Happy

FYI: this is a video I did when I was very first starting out with compiz.

There's another one I did for the Mandriva 10th Anniversary, but I can't get into the forum right now to get the link. Sad

Edit: Finally found it! Click Smile

You can extract the file with Archive Manager in Gnome, or Ark in KDE either one, and watch. Smile

Got playing around in Mandriva 2024.1 again on my primary user. Chose a simpler approach this time. I wanted something really dark but couldn't get anything to work, so went with one of my favorite colors for the background.

Mist theme, and Mist controls. Oxy-gnome icon theme:



With compiz:

Well, Cooker finally installed for me late last night, and went off without a hitch. Smile

The desktop's been through a few changes today, so forgive the many pics posted here. I'm pretty proud of what I've finally settled on. Hope you like, too.

I started out with it like this at first:



But the red seemed just a bit too much, so I landed with my two favorite colors predominant:



And here's the cube with the Cube Atlantis plugin, but unfortunately the shot didn't come out too good of it (the fishies and water moving, see...):



And Houston, we be paintin' de fire on dat screen too! LOL:



Gnome-Colors icon theme, Bluecurve-Grape Controls, Esco window borders all on Gnome. Very Happy

Oh, and check it out!

My Walkman now mounts with Nautilus in RC1!
