bagi linuxer.. ada yang pernah merasa.. kalau main di lingkungan linux, layarnya terkesan lebih terang.. walau diredupin.. tetep gak begitu nyaman..
berbeda dengan windows 7.. kalau brightness n contrastnya pas..

udah coba f.lux nya mas sumedho.. tetep aja gak nyaman.. apakah ada yang perlu diupdate di driver VGA nya ?

^mungkin warna themesnya yg ga enak

ada yg coba install gnomenu (aslinya barang deb) di opensuse ga?
gw dah install dari (rpm), tapi pas mo di add ke panel error... ada yg tau?

trus cursor di desktop effect ga ikut cursor theme.
tapi kalau ke window application mis: firefox, cursornya ikut kursor theme.
di desktop cursornya balik lagi ke yg standard, dimana settingnya?
(kalau desktop effect dimatikan, cursor di desktop jadi bener ikut theme punya)

[Sumedho]

ini yg udah ada unity nya itu yah... harusnya ui nya berubah banyak donk

[Forte]

btw ada yang pernah gnome-shell ?
sekarang sudah ada gnome-shell 3

gw coba install gnome-shell.. gagal.. setelah dicek.. ternyata di synaptic masih versi lama..
sudah masukkan ppa nya.. dan update tapi masih tetep gak refresh dan tetep versi lama..
dan versi lama juga gak bisa diinstall di ubuntu 10.04 / linux mint 9 karena konflik dengan libgjs-dev yang ngotot pake xulrunner 1.9.2.9 nya

mau coba install libgjs-dev yang baru.. juga gagal

gjs (0.5-1ubuntu2.3) lucid-proposed; urgency=low

  * fix LP: #576991 - Make gjs not need a rebuild for each xulrunner release;
    Use dh_xulrunner to add binary depends on xulrunner for libgjs0a;
    Add binary depends on xulrunner-dev (>= 1.9.2) for libgjs-dev
    - update debian/control
    - update debian/rules
  * Add back chrpath as a build-dep and delete the rpath in libgjs and
    libgjs-gi.so; Any rdepends of libgjs will now need a wrapper script to find
    libmozjs
    - update debian/rules
    - update debian/control
  * Add a wrapper around gjs-console so it can find libmozjs; install wrapper
    in override_dh_install
    - update debian/rules
    - add debian/gjs-console.sh
  * Drop lintian override for libgj0 since we dropped the rpath
    - drop debian/libgjs0.lintian-overrides

Slogan:
Bodhi is a minimalistic, enlightened, Linux desktop.

System Requirements:
Minimum -
300mhz i386 Processor
128megs of RAM
1.5g HD space


How can it be free?
Bodhi is free of charge and always will be. How? Easy, it's open source. Everybody's doing it " from IBM to Google, Firefox to Wikipedia " some of today's best software is based on open-source technologies. Shared code, shared efforts, shared principles-- No cost.

How do I get software I need?
By clicking "Get Software" on the Bodhi homepage naturally! We have assembled the best applications and made them easy to install. Simply search for what you are trying to do, click "install now" and sit back and relax as the software is automatically downloaded and installed on your computer.

Have a system that lacks an Internet connection? Not a problem! With our handy offline application installers you can download all the software you want for Bodhi on another computer, and then transfer the installers via a usb flash drive or external hard drive.

What file formats can Bodhi read?
With the right applications (see above) Bodhi can be compatible with nearly every file type. Microsoft Office Documents (doc, xls. ppt), popular media formats (mp3, mp4, wav), Bittorrents, and more - Bodhi is compatible with all of them with a few simple clicks.

Is Bodhi compatible withUbuntu/Windows/OSX Software?
Bodhi is fully backwards compatible with Ubuntu 10.04 packages. Bodhi can run some software designed for Microsoft Windows via Wine software (results will vary depending on the program). Bodhi does not support applications written for the OSX operating system.

Why Minimalistic?
Everyone has different computing needs making Application installation and usage entirely subjective. Therefore Bodhi includes only the basics most all users will use:
A Web Browser (Firefox)
File Manager (Elementary Nautilus)

There is also a terminal application (for power users) and synaptic for graphical package management.

What powers Bodhi?
Bodhi is built on top of an Ubuntu 10.04 core, using the latest, elegant Enlightenment desktop, all accessed by the light weight LXDM login manager. Bodhi uses dpkg and apt-get for package management.

What will Bodhi's release cycle be?
The current plan for Bodhi is to have a two year release cycle, meaning the second version will be based on Ubuntu 12.04. Things such as software and kernel updates will be backported (as best as we are able) to the current Bodhi version for five years - this way you can have the latest up-to-date software and hardware support without reinstalling your operating system every six months.

Why Ubuntu? Have you considered a Debian base or "distro X" base?
Ubuntu in general provides a solid base and has lots of resources available to it. For these reasons (among others) the Bodhi team feels Ubuntu is the best base for the time being.

We would LOVE to have an RPM based Bodhi version at some point. Currently we are leaning towards, and have been working on, a Fedora disc using the Enlightenment desktop. This is a side project and not the main focus of Bodhi. We very much love the choice that FOSS software offers. It is because of this that we would like to one day make an RPM powered Bodhi a reality.

Rationale:
Why are we making Bodhi when there are hundreds of existing Linux distros? Is it redundant? Bodhi sets itself apart from other Linux distros due to it's use of the Enlightenment desktop. Examining all the Linux distros, you will find fewer than a dozen that use Enlightenment.

Why use Bodhi over other "light weight" distros such as LXDE or XFCE? Enlightenment-- It is superbly designed, gorgeous and extremely fast on a wide variety of hardware. Screen shots do not do it justice.

The Name:
Bodhi comes from the Buddhist term for "enlightenment". It is also a type of sacred tree, thus the leaf used in our logo.
