Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by TheNacho 41 comments

Here's the error I get when doing make:

konsole_part.cpp:83: error: cannot allocate an object of abstract type 'konsolePart'

Kicker Pager Mod

could you add a mouse wheel switches desktops option to it as well? It's one of the things that kicker's mini pager has that this applet lacks. - Jul 08 2004

Baghira for Debian

KDE 3.5 Themes by Borszczuk 36 comments

That shouldn't be a problem for you. There are plenty of debs of liquid, the superior predecessor to Baghira floating around the net. They work with KDE 3.1x - May 10 2004

I think this image has potential but the leaf is too jagged and is not blended with the background very well. But I like the idea! - Apr 17 2004

Sorry

Wallpaper Other by freebar 23 comments

I don't give a damn about the war and can't see why everyone is so worked up about something that has no effect on anyone outside of Iraq. As a wallpaper, however, that one is on par with those piss-poor Christian ones that were posted here a while back. - Apr 01 2004
Emerald Colour scheme

KDE 3 Color Schemes by iPaqTux 4 comments

That's Red Hat's Bluecurve. But I am a Debian and FreeBSD user. You can get it if you download the RPM from a fedora server and then convert it to a tar to take the icons out. - Mar 30 2004

Green Destiny

KDE Plasma Screenshots by iPaqTux 5 comments

That's because too many people in *nix land want their desktops to look like someone else's. I hope more will see the light and come over to the green side :-D - Mar 29 2004

Thanks!

Wallpaper was already on Looky: http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=11559

I just uploaded the colour scheme here:

I also have a green version of CrystalGT which I started but it's not complete (I discovered the Bluecurve icons which I love even though I don't use Red Hat ;-) http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php?content=4142 - Mar 29 2004

Various KDE 1.-4. Improvements by markuzzo 29 comments

This is something that has been sorely needed since ACL support has gone mainstream in Linux. It removes the last advantage that Windows Explorer had over Konqy. - Mar 11 2004

Why use the same colour as everyoen else? Blue is so common. Try green or red. I'm glad you used gray before. - Jan 28 2004

Have you made the combo boxes and the K Menu arrow not so large? That's my number one gripe with the KDE Classic style. - Jan 21 2004
Crystal SVG

Full Icon Themes by everaldo 132 comments

Since most people don't use external modems, using a picture of one as the dialup icon is a bad idea. A telephone or phone jack would be a better idea. - Jan 18 2004

Until this is implemented, you can always use the ROX-Filer program to achieve the same results. See rox.sourceforge.net - Dec 01 2003

Wallpapers KDE Plasma by uninet 4 comments

I agree in principle but honestly, I would continue to use KDE on BSD no matter what anyone said since GNOME on BSD sucks rocks. - Oct 16 2003
OffBlue

KDE 3.0-3.4 Themes by iPaqTux 10 comments

No, this is not a style, but it is a theme. You are confusing the two. They are not the same.

It's not just a wallpaper and colorscheme since downloading the .ktheme file will change the windeco, background, and widget style.

BTW, this feature has been removed upstream. 3.2 will not likely have kthememanager unless someone can come up with one that is better featured than the current one. - Oct 03 2003

I'm using 3.2 and have it working in it except for the blue film background. All I see is just a blue background and some gears. - Sep 27 2003
KDE 3.2 alpha1

KDE Plasma Screenshots by iPaqTux 12 comments

I am a BSD user as well, but I don't experiment a lot with my BSD machines--hence no KDE 3.2 shots from it

Linux is good for cutting edge, BSD for stability. - Sep 26 2003
KDE 3.2 alpha1

KDE Plasma Screenshots by iPaqTux 12 comments

It's really quite simple. Just download the latest version of FreeType2 and reinstall it.

The problem w/most distros is that they enable ft's bytecode interepreter which is good if you do not like certain font sizes to be antialiased. However, most fonts are not very well hinted and thus when you get to the larger or smaller sizes, they get distorted (i.e. look bolder, etc.) when they are antialiased.

If, however, you prefer all fonts to be antialised, leaving FT's default settings work wonderfully.

You also have to pick good fonts such as Andale Mono, NewsGoth, Classical Garamond, etc. Most of the MS Truetype fonts are not coded too well imho. - Sep 26 2003
KDE 3.2 alpha1

You still cant make the taskbar transparent to my knowledge :-(

Also, the style I'm using is Plastik which is now part of KDE CVS. - Sep 25 2003
FreeBSD4.8

KDE Plasma Screenshots by pjv 2 comments

I am a FreeBSD user but the default libfreetype.so renders fonts very poorly in my opinion. One of the first things I do on my FreeBSD installs is to copy over a properly configured FreeType2. - Sep 25 2003
