Before long people will be asking you for Linux advice. Well done.
One of the best ways to help yourself....even when first starting out with Linux..is to help others.Share what you do know and learn what you dont as it were

I probably would`nt remember half of the little i do know if it was`nt for helping others with some of that very same stuff i`ve managed myself along the way.
I happily accept that even after close to 2 years.....not just with Linux but on any pc i am still the preverbial noob,and no doubt always will be.

It`s all still complete gobbildygook in reality but i get by

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper

Bored.....nothing new(bar current hardware) and just testing vm.Not the NTL variety of course but the vm`s as the 19" did`nt wanna play the fullscreen game on the bigger 22".

Attachment 15830

And for avoiding that dualbooting lark......and the pointless cube(??) haters
Attachment 15831

Had swapped over one of the el cheapo 19" belinea`s for the 22"..........for only £10 more.

Offered by manager due to "inconvenience caused".
The initial matching 19" i originally requested never arrived from Aberdeen as promised and that first 22" i settled for had a dead(stuck) pixel smack bang in the center,as did my lads new HDTV

That "Inconvenience caused" spiel sounds so familiar eh

Anyway,still not had time to really play with my own new toys and the kids wont let me anywhere near theirs..........i wonder why

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper

In a rather pointless gesture as we normally access the machine via ssh I just changed the wallpaper on the nthw game server, only punky has seen it, via vnc, but I think he likes it

Mine is a photo I took Sunday evening of a treeline in the village of Narborough, Norfolk just as the sun was going down over them.

Re: [Merged] Show us your Desktop or Wallpaper

Good site foreverwar.

A friend has been hankering after a fish tank desktop for ages and I gave in and installed one for her. I think it's a nightmare but she is captivated by it. I have even had to install the screen saver version as well. They would drive me nuts but if any one wants a animated desktop or screen saver I can recommend this site. To get the full realistic effect you really have to download but you can get some idea by clicking on the pictures shown on the site. ...
