  • @tracnemaker123 mac sucks shit

  • @regalgreen no dumb idiot

  • woah...are those just added affects for the vid or do you actually get that cube thing with Linux?

  • @Fourtyb4five It's a plugin. It takes one click to enable it. Application that provides desktop effects is called Compiz. You can configure how your OS looks and behaves.

    Search on YouTube for compiz and you'll see all the magic you can do with a little imagination. :)

  • What is the version of linux in this video??

  • i have win7 i never tried Mac OS or Linux, but it looks good soo i will try i now...

  • @19f97 You can download it for free, there are many distros that are free, for noobs i recommend linux mint

  • Always been a fan of Windows and Mac, never tried Linux, maybe one day i will

  • Linux is great for everything : Downloads , Brows , servers , Netbook , Notbook . security. It's useful for hackers and normal users

    Linux for human beings

    Linux for all

    LINUX IS THE BEST OS

  • Linux just has flashy effects but its really good for downloading files with all those windows ;) if you know what i mean.... :P

    postead at 04:23 AM

  • pc is awesome you cant be a gamer and own a mac, even if you get a program like bootcamp to let you run windows programs you still get the viruses so whats the point in switching again?

  • @mjm55 well im pretty sure that were gonna start seeing more games out for mac....its pretty sad that games are pretty much one sided....i love the stability and output results of my new mbp but i can only play hacked games i hate it...just cuz you can play more games on a pc doesnt mean theyre awesome...

  • @mrwashur1991 well im a bi time gamer so pc is exacly what i like

  • a mac is wayyyyyyyy better

  • @stevendjie u dont no shit do you? mac's are expensive and shit. you can get all the same specs in a different "case" for half the price

  • this guy's computer must be a beast!

  • OK so we got a flashy desktop with all it's wonderful Compiz Fusion effects.

    Main problem I've found with using Linux as a desktop OS. Is the sound architecture is an absolute mess. There is ALSA, OSS, Pulse Audio, etc,. I install a package like Skype, and then it asks me which sound architecture I want to use. How should I bloody know? I then have to spend time dicking around just to find a combination where the microphone works.

    One does not get this sort of problems with Windows or OS X.

  • Version?

  • If you guys really knew anything about computers you guys wouldn't be arguing over Linex and Mac OS. Linex is a command line based OS and Mac is for more of the creative types. Every os have a different job. Windows is for basic stuff, Linex for more complex users, and Mac for creative bastards like me. For videos and movies. How are you guys going to sit there and act like you know everything about all the OS's. You don't, a real technician knows what I said is true.

  • If you would know the Linux OS (the Linux kernel is the operating system because Linux is not microkernel but monolithic kernel) then you would know that Linux is counted as commandline and graphical OS because Linux OS includes support for X11.

    And the OS does not mean anything else on this case than what applications has be written for it. Like if you have Java, X11 and Qt ported to Linux (as they are) you can run software what needs those.

    The DE is more important for normal user than OS.

  • Yeah thats pretty much what I said. And yes I knew that X11 is Linux. But as i said Mac is for creators and Linux is for the complex users.

  • "And yes I knew that X11 is Linux."

    X11 is not a Linux. It is a window system what is ported to multiple operating systems. The OS need to have support for it to have fast graphics. Without coded support, you do not have hardware accerated 3D. The Linux OS (= a kernel) has X11 support coded to it. But X11 itself is own software outside of the OS (Linux in this case as well). Even Mac OS X*s operating system XNU has support for X11. Even it looks crappy because it does not support Cocoa.

  • It' really for Video Graphics Users. Unless you like that type of O.S..

    In reality, it is not going to compute any faster for your regular needs. For Example: Going on the Internet, Watching videos/movies and that's mainly what most of common people use.

    Playing Arcade Games is the real deal that your computer has to computate all the aspects of parameters in order for it not to glitch Or stammer.

    We have not found an Operating System this is impregnable. Because of Worldwide Hackers!!!!!!!

  • You know that hackers means good guys (white hats) (security advisors, guru software developers and so on) and crackers (black hats) means bad guys who writes mallware, attacks to others systems and steal information for own purposes?

    And the graphical desktop (any user interface) is not part of the OS (Linux kernel). You can have what ever you like kind a user interface running top of your OS, only changing the outlook of the system.

  • Good looking out for proving our Thesis on this topic, TheFri13. At least, we know that we have intelligence in the You Tube Community.

    So you're saying that it is a add-on to the Operating System? In my opinion, I thought that this was specifically a Stand Alone Operating {Program}System.

    What is your opinion for this specific Graphic Interface Application?

    Nine9eniN

  • "So you're saying that it is a add-on to the Operating System?"It is not a add-on to OS. When talking about monolithic kernels, the kernel itself is the whole OS alone. All other software on the userspace is just software. They can be system programs, application programs or software libraries and so on. When talking about Linux, all software on the user mode (different address space) is outside of the OS.

    That is just a normal desktop environment with Compiz Fusion top of the OS and other soft.

  • I love Mac OS, but... i plan on building a Linux PC soon. I love the open source spirit of the community.

  • stiill i prefer Mac OS... 10 stars for Snow leopard... one of the mac's fastest OS's to install.. 45mins.. leopard took 3hrs.., from tiger if i remember correctly

  • Only MAC OS!!!!

  • bull shit i have both

  • wow dude sick!!! what version of linux is that? please reply back i want my computer to look sick like that ;D

  • WTF???? Ultra Super mega Remixed Linux ???? or what?? that is mod???

  • what operating system is this?

  • Linux is not as good as Mac. that's why its free.

  • thats very true

  • What does the angle of my penis have anything to do with choking poultry?

  • lol why does it say linux? that looks like leopard to me...

  • how does linux compare to windows xp or vista? how is it on resources?

  • Linux SUCKS!!!!!!! BIG TIME!! MAC OR PC OWNAGE!!!!

  • cool song

  • annoying effects.. thats all hes showing..

  • what linux distrobution is that plz reply

  • Doesnt matter its a program u can do on all linux called Compiz fusion!

  • XP still rules

  • is linux easy to use? and is it good?

  • you can get used to anything man, I first thought Mac was complicated. nothing is hard dude

  • wtf is linux?

  • its an operating system like windows xp or vista

  • My advice to anybody fed up with windows shite:

    1. Install Virtualbox on your Windows machine

    2. Download Ubuntu, burn it on cd and install/boot and use it via Virtualbox

    3.Become member of one (or more) of plenty Ubuntu communities and start learning bout linux.

    3. After you have seen the real OS, you will know what to do with windows.

    Btw: As I was also helped by other people when I was a beginner,feel free to ask me if you have questions about ubuntu or this particular desktop theme etc.;)

  • how do i get that virtualbox?...

  • oh..and is that Virtualbox...something like a Virtual Machine?

  • windows is the best.. and is this video actualy howing the desktop of the linux OS surly doing all that at once takes alot of custumisation and time to get running properly, let alone the specs required for this?

  • Actually you'd be surprised on the specs. You can do what s/he's doing on a P3 with a Geforce2 and less than 512 megs of RAM. Compiz requires only 32 megs of vram for the graphic effects. Check out the minimum requirements of Vista Home Premium (the one with aero glass) for comparison.

  • 2 yrs ago this video (orig. by kroneage) encouraged me to install ubuntu linux on my machine.I got used to it very quickly and it was fun! In short: IF I boot windows today, then only virtually via virtualbox running on my linux machine.

  • i have a mac thats better than windows, linux is cool im not going to say anything about it couse ive havent even seen the os in real life

  • Macs suck windows are awesome

  • linux is brill but shame about it when it lags out

  • can you have this on a normal computer? i mean not a hand touch hi tech monitor or something

  • Of course you can.The vid was made on 2.4 ghz P4 processor, Nvidia 6600 GT gfx card, and only 512 megs of RAM.

  • Is this Ubuntu?

  • linux can do that???!

  • yeah

  • My Teacher showed us Linux at school, I liked the 4 separate desktops!

  • is this s h it real???

  • sure

  • u can twist and turn like tat in linux?

  • i have vista, is Linux better then vista.

  • Linux pwnz Vista!

  • Yea seems like most programs and files are not compatible with Macs and linux. Which leaves windows #1 for now

  • I love this video, nice work. Perfect settings. Wallpapers, Top Cube Images, shadows, fadding, skydome, all... I <3 It

  • awsome i want a computer like dat

  • u got a core2 duo?

  • No, its a Celeron 2800 mhz with Geforce Fx 5600 :). No, it's Not Vista :D

  • what is the name of the song ? :P

  • owning music :-)

  • awsome interface, i think am gona get linux. but i mean when downloading software, is it compatible with all like Xp Vista and Mac, and can yo use the regular internet explorer

  • Linux software is compatible with the Linux os stuff just as Mac software is compatible with Macs. You can download stuff for linux, but you will have to use the shell to install it.

    Depending on which distrabution you get, you should get firefox with it which is better that ie anyway.

  • nice show and nice music.

  • were do you get this os

  • Lol, yeah where do you get these desktop backgrounds.

  • what song is this?

  • linux is so pretty its just too bad it takes like a month to get it to do anything :( but ....still.....its worth the time put into it in my opinion

  • The only new thing I saw is jiggling screen and the box. I am pretty sure I would get pissed at the affects and stop using it because of that.

    And switching through screens like that gives me a headache.

  • what kind of linux is that what version

  • Erm, will it delete all my files when i download it? Also, can i still use photoshop, firefox and macromedia?

  • Firefox you can. Using it right now!

  • WHERE CAN I GET THESE WALLPAPERS?

  • This video was one of the reasons I switched my illegal Windows XP copy (lol) to Ubuntu. It's great and as you all say, the computer doesn't work slower at all (much faster than my tuned up XP). Hail Tux!!

  • lol same me being cheep I used an illigal version of XP but Suse Linux and Ubantu is so much better.

  • XGL is the future! xgl is 1337!!

  • looks like kororaa or novell xgl

  • nice wallpaper where can I get one like it?

  • munk666tlen is right. I confirm it with my old P3 with 256MB Ram and Radeon 7000 64MB DDR. This vid was first posted on kronage's page, look it up there. And all you linux haters, we really have no care for how productive you think linux is, we'll make and use whatever we like, and if it hurts to see something good come out of it then freakin sneck up.

  • i agree with some people, ok my desktop can to this really sick animation, but come on, ITS ALL FOR SHOW, how can this thing be productive? microsoft couldve easily done this, but its not their main objective, if you wanna see some really cool 3D animation watch Finding Nemo for all i care, personal computers are made for us to be MORE productive, how can anyone be productive with this? but it looks cool nonetheless. and darkjuju is definetely right, this feature is just a waste of RAM.

  • > ITS ALL FOR SHOW

    No, its for giving the drawing job to graphic card instead of CPU, ans as a side effect you get outstanding effects. Of course they use more power, but its still nothing comparing to vista.

  • > microsoft couldve easily done this

    Probably, but you would need a newest supercomputer having at least as much power as Deep Blue. Vista works slow with it's so called "effects", it needs 2GHz CPU, 1 GB RAM, newest graphic card. XGL can run on 400MHz, 256 RAM (twice enough) and GeForce 2 Ti 64MB. Amazing? MS engineers suck like hell.

  • > how can anyone be productive with this

    It's making job MUCH faster. I've used it. Now back on standard Linux X11 I miss rotating desktops, looking behind the windows, etc.

    > waste of RAM

    As I said before, you can run it having 256 MB of ram (most of which is free) - compare it to vista using 400MB of RAM CONSTANTLY, in no-3D-effects mode. Try turning it on. Once again: MS sucks :)

    Heil Linux!

  • YEs, you're SO right! That's why you need 1GB of RAM for Windows Vista to properly run *cough*

    (sarcasm)

  • i saw a vista at the source running on 1gb. it sucked....

  • it's so exciting! wow.. who the fuck cares? wow, look how I can change desktops as it looks like a 3D cube!! shocking! whoa! oh look! my little widows are like rubber! breathtaking!! lamest shit I have seen.

    All I see is a bunch more crap to hog my ram.

  • can windows vista also do this?

  • nice video!!!!

    what version of linux is this??

  • but is it stable?

  • more than stable... is great

  • WOW, i didnt know linux was this cool!

  • This video made me install linux with XGL mineself - it's great!

  • Dear Mate: what kind of hardware are you using? Regards

  • nice xgl rulez...

    i just can't get it working on my pc :(

  • Very good video!!!

    Where can I download this backing sound? Or which is his name for me to find and to download!

  • The background music is by a group called Machinae Supremacy, the song is called "Sidology Episode 2 - Trinity". You can download it free at machinasupremacy-dot-com. It should be under 'Releases' then 'Webography'

  • ;-)

  • can you tell me please which components have you instaelled and which linux distribution... cheers for the video!

  • Still the best video ever with the best sound ever !
