Fedora on my laptop... math, music and some pictures to show some stuff I work with on my laptop. I used to be an Ubuntu fan, and even experimented with SUSE at time, but since FC5 release I haven't looked elsewhere.

Cool! My current Linux Desktop

Running ATI Linux 8.26.18 drivers and Linux kernel 2.6.17.1.

I can run "X" now with "extmod" enabled but Xine would crash. So I have extmod" disabled.

Runs very nice on my Dell 2405FPW 24" LCD.
I am using onboard sound for Linux and my X-Fi while in Windows Media Center 2005.
Linux has no X-Fi support and onboard sound is now fixed in 2.6.17.1 kernel for my motherboard.

So now I can watch DVD's as I program in Linux..

Boring desktop for now, I just installed my first linux (ubuntu) today so I'm a complete n00b, but so far I'm loving it and got most of my help from reading the threads in this section. Cheers.

Holy crap someone posted here!

hehe I'll post my Arch Linux desktop in a few days once I buy a keyboard to use for my Linux machine (2 computers, 2 monitors, 2 mice, 1 keyboard FTL)

kde 4.1 is nice, but I still prefer xfce4.
