That's why I moved to Wordpress, <a href="http://xubuntublog.wordpress.com">come see my new blog</a>!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4996143201968925978.post-52407973138306948482007-02-20T16:18:00.000+01:002007-02-21T16:18:35.913+01:00MurrinaLooks - a faster ClearlooksIf you like the default Clearlooks theme on Xubuntu, but find it a tad too slow, then this post will make your day :D<br /><br /><a href="http://cimi.netsons.org/pages/murrine.php">Murrine</a> is a relatively new theme engine that is quickly becoming popular for its speed. Plus, there are <a href="http://malteo.homelinux.net/">Ubuntu packages</a> available (site is down at the moment, you can <a href="http://www.box.net/public/vtoan0huk3">download the package for Edgy here</a>).<br /><br />However, Clearlooks was not made for this engine and thus cannot take advantage of its speed. That's why I modified Clearlooks to use the Murrine engine. It's not a perfect clone, but I think it gets close.<br /><br />To use it, first install the Murrine Engine I mentioned, then <a href="http://xfce-look.org/content/show.php?content=52752">download my MurrinaLooks theme</a>, then place the MurrinaLooks folder in /usr/share/themes . You can now select it from Applications->Settings->User Interface Settings. Woohoo!Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4996143201968925978.post-91759337445071059542007-02-20T15:21:00.000+01:002007-02-20T16:41:28.722+01:00Well... Hi!Finally! I'm here! I know you've all been waiting for me!<br /><br />OK, maybe not. Anyway, I'll introduce myself. My name is Vincent, born on the <a href="http://3rdnovember.de/" title="Yes, the third of November!">3rd of November</a>, 1989, living in the Netherlands. My music style is quite... Different. But well, you can check <a href="http://www.last.fm/user/Vin0rz/" title="View my Last.fm profile">my Last.fm profile</a> for that. Then I like playing <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Association_football" title="This football is what I mean">football</a> (I use British English).<br /><br />This blog is about Xubuntu, of which I'm an avid user, and in which I'm also getting involved a bit (co-maintainer of <a href="http://xubuntu.org/" title="The Xubuntu website">the website</a>, helping users, writing documentation...). Well, we'll see what I post related to Xubuntu, but I plan on adding some extra value to the web instead of copying other stories.Unknownnoreply@blogger.com0
