What's worse, Conky still displays it (using part of the original wallpaper) as well as the terminal in transparent mode, so now the whole desktop is quite messy. <br />Anyone knows where the original F16 wallpaper on XFCE is?Viktornoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474321140763590831.post-90015012231982265022011-11-30T22:41:34.045+00:002011-11-30T22:41:34.045+00:00@Inukaze:

Statler XFCE is, has the lowest of ram usage among all distros on cold boot, about 67 to 70mb. I've not found any other distro coming close to it. Everything else is quite snappy as well. I'm also in the quest for the best XFCE (non Debian since i already have #! :-) that will satiate my taste and i think i'll settle down with Vector 7.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474321140763590831.post-84683909597198865252011-11-23T21:42:02.884+00:002011-11-23T21:42:02.884+00:00@Anonymous:

It's decent OS. But it was demolished. It was replaced with Salix XFCE. That one was demolished too. I am still in research of best XFCE distribution. I found my best GNOME and KDE ones, so the question is in XFCE only. 8-)DarkDuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16128579430145372138noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474321140763590831.post-48872748943723121252011-11-23T21:38:37.205+00:002011-11-23T21:38:37.205+00:00Linux Mint XFCE is better than any other XFCE dist...Linux Mint XFCE is better than any other XFCE distroAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-474321140763590831.post-62552820168819993802011-11-23T21:25:16.835+00:002011-11-23T21:25:16.835+00:00@Anonymous:
