ZORIN OS CORE HOW TO
I know how to take out the indicator applet. Removing Indicator 3 applet : ĭo just the opposite.to add applets of your choice.

Link > Awn Panel Themes : viewtopic.php?f=6&t=4870 Sometimes you have to log-out then log-in to make everything complete !!!! Pick > activate the theme of interest within the panel for it to work with the rest. Then it will direct you to pick from where ever you have the themes stored. go the the panel itself right click on preferences > themes > install. The link below is pretty self explanitory on how. It's Dateks old section.I just keep things up and add to it occasionally. to match the rest already made for everyone.

Colour have a psychological effect on the users and the bootsplash if the first imression a user gets on the OS Zorin 7 +8 splash screen have great colours but they are more like wallpapers (very static). I really love the new splash screen and the new black theme amazing but i still insist that Zorin's splash should be like this. There are lots of great things about Zorin os 8.
ZORIN OS CORE INSTALL
Be sure that most zorin users, the first thing they will do after installation is to install vlcĪnd BTW where is the computer icon on the desktop? Zorin and Linux Mint are the best distributions and even the best OSes in the world, but i still think they can do much better Zorin has to be more pragmatic when it comes to software. It is fast and complete it has more features than any other DE see for yourself here But if you try Cinnamon 2.0 (which is a fork of gnome now) you see that all these claims are not based on any facts. Lots of developers hate it because they never used the latest versions of it or maybe because they hate gnome 3 all in all. I have discussed this on the Mint forum as well here Ĭoncerning Cinnamon I don't think it is a disaster at all/. It will install the office suite bu you have to install the desktop-integration deb so that you get the launchers and all Try it for yourself But you need to purge LibreOffice so that you can install it like this:Īnd then right-click on the file and select "run in terminal" and excute this command: Get it here it is composed of a set of deb files and a "desktop-integration" file which has a deb file itself. That was a long time ago when OpenOffice buggy but now things are diffrent. If you are really desperate to have an Office Suite that looks like M$ you could install Kingsoft Office but that has not equivalent of Access and it is 'closed source' - why one of its Chinese users where it comes from, stopped using it. Wolfman reported not long ago that the AWN project has been resurrected by someone else so it could well become stable. Libre Office has far more going for it and in a recent article in LXF LibreOffice was the outright winner! I tried installing OpenOffice on Pear which was a complete disaster as it does not have an installer for GNU/Linux so I don't know how easy that is to configure. LibreOffice is far superior to OpenOffice - most of the devs left OpenOffice when Oracle took over from Sun Microsystems and one of the leading Devs that left before this that setup GoOo ceased his dev work to join the other devs at The Document Foundation. VLC is good but there have been security issues in the past - for me SMPlayer (with YouTube add-on) is the best video player.
ZORIN OS CORE WINDOWS 7
There are also lots of Windows 7 menu applets on cinnamon spices too. I am working on creating a Zorin OS 8 Cinnamon theme now.
