Hello, dear thinkpadders!
I know there's a thread for posting our desktop pics, but I thought it would be a good idea to have a separate one for the linux headz out there. Lets hope the mods agree on this too

Please post the version of your distro

Here's mine

Kubuntu 12.04

I posted this in the other thread, but it's more appropriate here:

Fedora 17 KDE

Linux Mint 13 Cinnamon Edition on an X60s.

So I switched back to Scientific Linux 6.3 because full disk encryption + KDE 4.9 used about 20% of my CPU (E-350) at idle. SL63 uses about 8% CPU when idle with the same configuration. It's a step backwards UI wise, but its stable and looks really nice. I have Microsoft Office 2007 installed and running perfectly with WINE, which is mandatory for my MBA program.

updated wallpaper on kubuntu 12.10

So cleaning out my storage closet for an upcoming move, I found enough parts to essentially build my next "desktop" computer. A T400 (8GB RAM and two HDDs!), a spare HP LCD monitor, and a Model M keyboard. Right now I'm using the T400 as intended (a laptop!), but after the move I plan to paint the Model M to emulate the T4x series keyboard.

Anyway, I've installed Scientific Linux 6.3 and configured it to my liking. I also found some unused Vista Business product keys, so eventually I will install that into a Virtual Machine. My portable machine will still be the X120e, it is too nice to sell and with the 4GB and SSD, runs Windows 7 like a boss.

Didn't think I'd get this aged 900mhz/512mb T22 looking and working this well. This is Lubuntu 12.04.2 with Metacity set as the Window Manager and its compositing turned on in the configuration editor gconf-editor - does actually work more smoothly than a standard LXDE desktop. Evolve gtk and Metacity theme and a panel background made from a screenshot of the Tout theme I contributed to Linux Mint 14. This seems an overlooked viable means of getting a Gnome 2-style desktop without banking on Mate lasting.
