wrsthello chris458518:47
chris4585hey wrst, anything new?18:47
wrstchris4585: i had to go to kde from gnome18:47
wrsthow about with you?18:47
chris4585whys that? :o18:48
chris4585well I'm still on openbox + cairo-dock18:48
chris4585gnome on manjaro was using like 50% of my cpu halfway through the day18:48
wrstchris4585: i like gnome but they keep on removing features, and extensions from one version to another don't work and i spend more time setting it up than i should have to18:58
wrstat least kde has the ability to be what i want without adding third party tools for the most part18:59
wrstthat break with every upgrade18:59
chris4585wrst, the extensions usually you just have to go to the text file and just add 3.6 to the supported list19:32
chris4585usually, sometimes that doesn't work19:32
chris4585that is understandable, if and when nautilus 3.6 gets updated, I'll still try to use 3.4 or something built off of nautilus like marlin19:33
wrstchris4585: many didn't work they made it harder to remove and put icons in the top bar etc just not worth the hassle really19:33
chris4585ah, I figured you would go with xfce before kde lol19:34
wrstchris4585: takes lots of tweaking to get it were i want it mainly19:36
chris4585yeah, gnome is going to kill itself before it ever gets better, they just don't realize it yet19:37
wrstyes they are just so hard headed they don't care19:39
chris4585yep20:04
chris4585in other news looks like mate is becoming more stable20:04
chris4585http://www.linuxmint.com/rel_nadia_whatsnew.php20:04
wrstnever thought i woudl go that route chris4585... but...20:05
chris4585and adding features now that they have fixed bugs that gnome devs never did by the looks of it20:06
wrstlooks nice i'm just so not a mint fan20:07
chris4585I actually love mint, everything bad about it can be removed20:11
chris4585I feel like mint puts way more polish on their releases and actually care, compared to ubuntu...20:11
wrsti would rather add than remove personally20:15
wrstbut that's why i run arch on the desktop also :)20:15
chris4585wrst, I don't really mind removing, I'm just lazy when it comes to installing arch the old way20:48
chris4585archbang is now updated and already comes configured with the wm I know and love20:48
chris4585so I'm probably going to install it soon20:48
wrstarch isn't too bad just have the wiki handy and you are good to go20:49
chris4585yeah but I'm a lazy mofo20:50
wrstits no fun for someone else to do all the work ;)20:51
chris4585wrst, you have a point there22:33
chris4585but you can learn someone else's secrets too22:33
chris4585by dissecting what they did lol22:34
chris4585wrst, http://i.imgur.com/y0dJT.jpg23:24
wrstnice chris458523:32
chris4585thanks wrst :)23:37
wrstchris4585: i'm just at regular ol' kde: https://dl.dropbox.com/u/2959906/kde4.png23:39
chris4585doesn't look bad, can quassel be configured to be black background with white text?23:40
wrstchris4585: i think so, you can do stylesheets of some sort23:41
wrstchris4585: that is just vanilla with a changed wallpaper23:41
chris4585ah I may have to really try it sometime23:41
wrstand dropbox icon i had to change23:41
wrstwell i like it i have for some time just liked gnome apps and work flow but good to learn something different :)23:42
wrsti have to say short of the silly blue shadow thing there is a lot of polish to it23:43
chris4585ah, I like KDE but I just don't like their whole thing for separate desktop thingy where it changes settings23:45
chris4585I forgot what it was called23:46
chris4585the theme you have is nice23:46
wrstthat's just the stock kde 4.9 theme23:46
wrsti have done nothing to that23:46
chris4585ah23:50
wrstpretty slick straight out of the box23:54
chris4585yeah definitely23:54
wrstgnome shell is also but to make it work for me i have to use some extensions and what not23:55
wrstand this is pretty much stock i mad some cosmetic adjustments so all my icons are monochrome but nothint that effects my workflow23:55
