That looks really good!! Are you using Compiz?

Tried Compiz on this machine (In Linux Mint) and although it worked fine, i found that i didn't use it that much, and couldn't really justify the extra resources. Plus the machine seems to run a lot quicker without it enable.

Now i'm just looking into setting up fluxkeys instead so that i can change desktops with the press of F1, F2 etc... Smile

NO, this is an old package called 3ddesktop. You can change the way it looks and works also. Not as complex as compiz but it looks good just to change desktops.

I played with 3ddesktop a while back and while it was fun and cool to show to people even on a box with lowish RAM, I didn't keep it.

Looks good though eriefisher.

This is cool, but between adobe's crappy flash and swiftweasel my desktop still freezes up with some badly written flash video players.

I have no issue with iceweasel/flash. I do get a full lock up when using K9copy. When it goes to make the iso, sometimes at the beginning and sometime as it finishes. I can't figure this one out either.
