As an old GNU/Linux user, I try any wm/desktops laying around in Linux. Now and from many years, the only desktop I use if FVWM-Crystal.

I begun to use it. I added some missing features like the support of AlsaPlayer, MPlayer, and of the additional categories of the freedesktop menu norm. Still today, this is the only Linux desktop that have full support of these additional categories out of the box in any Linux distribution. And today, I am the main contributor to that thing.

My first decent computer was an Amiga 2000. It is still my reference for a simple but powerful desktop environment. I incorporated improved clones of some of its main features into FVWM-Crystal, like the ability to bring in full screen any application and to navigate between these full screened applications and the current desktop page. That way, FVWM-Crystal is the only desktop that provide at the same time the traditional multiple desktop pages and an Amiga OS like stack of full screened applications.

All that based on FVWM, one of the older wm in existence. FVWM is an incredible piece of software which is not only a windows manager, but provide a tool-kit for the Xlib at the same time, which make it incredibly powerful and flexible. You want to make something with it, the only question is how. I was even able to clone the 2 pictures icons of the Amiga OS.

I'm actually in the market for a new home computer, and thinking of going laptop for the portability factor.

Budget is $700, although a bit more wouldn't break the bank if I find the right device. What are the best laptops in that range? (15" minimum screen size)

It's going to be out home computer, so we'll be used for all the basic stuff like paying bills, web browsing, school work, learning games and websites. But also I like doing design work with Photoshop, and use various music software like Sound Forge. Also downloading music and movies, so a dual layer dvd burner would be nice. Backlit keyboard and touch screen are a plus also.

I'm pretty out of the loop, as I haven't been computer shopping in over ten years. Just searching around has me leaning towards Asus, Toshiba, or HP.

Thanks in advance to anyone that can help me pick something out.

I was talking about both FVWM and FVWM-Crystal. FVWM is the window manager, FVWM-Crystal is the desktop. In fact FVWM-Crystal is an advanced ensemble of themes for FVWM. What I like with FVWM is its incredible power and versatility. What I don't like is it took me some time to really understand FVWM, it is not that hard, but complex, and it can take time to get the big picture. What I like with FVWM-Crystal is that without it, I would never have learn FVWM, I get a fully usable desktop from the start, I can do whatever I want with it.

With the other desktops, you are limited by what they will let you set in their preferences. With FVWM, the only real limitation is your imagination, it is not only a wm, it is a tool-kit for the Xlib at the same time. With FVWM-Crystal on top of FVWM, from the user perspective, it is like the other desktops, it provide every thing inclusive its preferences. But nobody restrain the users to copy the files they want to modify in ~/.fvwm-crystal and to make its own FVWM-Crystal. The file structure of FVWM-Crystal allow the user to focus on one thing at a time, it is how I begun to contribute to it and to learn fvwm.

When you get used to FVWM, in comparison, all the other wm/desktops are bloated in one or several ways and are incredibly limited. OK, fvwm doesn't have 3D effects, it is a 2D wm, but with an incredible versatility and power. And when you put FVWM-Crystal in top of FVWM, you get an incredible desktop with some unique features, it is the only desktop that have an application menu which is fully compliant with the free desktop normalization, which mean it is the only desktop with full support of the additional categories of that norm, which is a must as soon you have plenty of applications in the same main category.

With fvwm-crystal, I always never need to modify the application menu, it is just to install or remove an application, and the menu just work, and that without to get idiotic things like 100 of applications mixed around in the same main category. It just work because it support that f. xdg menu norm. That support was one of the first things I added into Crystal. I begun to do the same for plain fvwm using fvwm-menu-desktop: fvwm-xdg-menu. It should work with any desktop that claim to be freedesktop compliant and which doesn't care to provide a compliant application menu. It's a work in progress and about 1/4 of the additional categories remain to be included, and it provide only English and French locales at that time.

Upgrading LG R410 laptop CPU

Hi all,

A good friend of mine has a LG R410 laptop.

It works great but the CPU is kind of slow. It has an Intel T3200 CPU.

I googled the CPU and saw that it is a socket P.

I was wondering, will Intel T7300 / T7500 / T7700 will be OK for the machine?

Any other suggestions for an upgrade?

I'll by the CPU via eBay or an internet site that sells laptop replacement parts.

Thanks!

Build a PC with $100!!

Okay, guys, I need some help. I have accepted a challenge to build a $100 PC. Now, this may sound crazy building a PC for $100, but considering I already have some components it shouldnt be too hard, I just need some on what parts could I use to build it.

Here are my parts I have for spare:

1x Dell 1920x1080 LCD Monitor

1x Retail copy of Windows XP HE

1x mouse and keyboard

1x LGA Pentium M Processor (Designed for Laptops)

Unlimitedx Linux OSes

2x 256 MB DDR RAM

That doesnt seem like a lot but I have seen some sales of old Dell Optiplex GX280 for like $30-50. Maybe I could just upgrade some of that PC with some better parts. Remember that this PC is not supposed be designed for specific things like gaming but rather a PC that can get an overall nice benchmark score. Me and my friend made a bet to see who could be able to build the best computer out of $100, winner gets $200 and the loser's PC. We are going to use NovaBench as a score guideline so I am looking for score of around 200-400, which is mediocre. We can upgrade old spare PC's but we must no be previous owners which is why I can buy an old PC and upgrade it. Any ideas?
