[opensuse] Amazing XFCE + beryl effects
Hi all, I stumbled upon this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xC5uEe5OzNQ It is so cool! I then install XFCE from http://software.opensuse.org/download/X11:/xfce/openSUSE_10.2/ So far so good, beryl can run almost as smoothly as in gnome. However, I cannot find the way how to adjust XFCE to be like in the video. Such as: growing icon in the panel when mouse-over, flying icons in panel. How can I get those kind of desktop effect just like in the video?

Greetings Just wondering, how do you know its XFCE 4.4.1 it says its Ubuntu, not Xubuntu. Ubuntu uses gnome. =/ XFCE has themes too, may be you have to change the theme Lucky you, that you have extra resources to allow yourself that eyecandy. Look in: http://www.xfce-look.org/ http://www.beryl-themes.org/ May be you'll find what you're looking for.

Most of the effect come from beryl. The growing icon "a la Mac" come from superkaramba and one of the bars. Kroller can do it but this was not kroller. I play with it and I removed and I do not remember the name but just install superkarmaba and then look for bars. I do run beryl as window manager both in my laptop (ibm x40 with intel chip) and workstation that has nvidia GTS 8800 320mb. If you have ATI card may or may not work. Intel and nvdia do work very well. I could never go back to 2d desktop. The polyhedron for me is a very nice way to deal with many desktops. I use it for business and the laptop I do presentation so it works very well and it is dependable. I even run mythtv on one side of the polyhedron both in the workstation where I have the backend and MySQL and also in the laptop where I have a wireless front end. -=terry(Denver)=- On Sun, 2007-05-27 at 00:44 +0700, Fajar Priyanto wrote:
