Metisse on GNU/Linux demo

Resizing is stretchy instead of solid. Has that changed?

ahhh i dont understand noobs.

so this is cool?
nothing like a good ol shell.

zsh ftw.

I aggree! I wish everyone would stop the inter-distro bickering..

What's the track playing? J

"not a 3D desktop!" uhh what?

You have to redefine your question.
Is it: WTH was that about?
or: How come it is not?
My question is the later :-)
And if yours is the former, it's because some magazines compared it to beryl/compiz (which is, in a sense a 3D desktop - because it uses 3D acceleration).

mine was the latter. i guess if metisse doesn't use 3D acceleration that's a good point, but i was thinking that what makes either a 3D desktop is more along the lines of how it relays the elements of the desktop. in this sense metisse is definitely 3D. you can't fold or turn something on the z axis in a 2D world.

Actually, I think Metisse uses OpenGL (I was wrong). Well, I guess it would be 3D by your standards, but then so would multiple sheets of paper in RL, and they still show 2D, no matter how you turn them.
But yeah... we have to wait for the poster to reply what he meant by it.

io uso ubuntu 8.04 :)

Go Metisse! I prefer this over Compiz because it is actually useful.
