AWN vs Cairo Dock

[demise187]

hi, i'm very new to linux. can you list everything i would need to get my desktop to looks like yours does in the first 30 seconds of your video? it looks amazing! i especially like the 3D icons that spin. will i need Fedora or can this be done in Ubuntu too? thanks for any help you can give me!

lets face it, your desktop looks a fucking mess.

cairo uses less resources

@chubble101 Sure? :)

[alex@destroyer ~]$ ps -e -orss=,args= | grep avant-window-navigator

13580 avant-window-navigator 792 grep avant-window-navigator

Seems pretty low to me :)

@alex95bg1 after usig both, cairo feels faster to me. checked my system monitor and cairo uses less ram than awn for me. I love them both tho, but the eye candy of cairo won me over

[chimoy2008]

Is that cairo or awn?

And where did you get your themes?

[YomorokaXD]

which is more stable?

[alex95bg1]

@YomorokaXD Hard to say. Both are really stable :}

@YomorokaXD for me. awn. :\

why the fuck did awn not give a option to put the dock on top of the screen? >:(

[alex95bg1]

that won't be bad.. i really hope that they add it in future releases. Interesting how do you put in in linux mint without messing up the cool bottom panel

[ajboomboom5]

true =/

[KirbyPwnz13]

by moving the panel to the top, thats what i did :)

[alex95bg1]

it looks cooler on the bottom though :)

Easy, you move the bottom panel to the top.
