Gusto: KDM, Ksplash and xplanetFX

Samstag, den 11. August 2012

Since the honks at GNOME are fucking things up on a broader level I decided to make the step over to KDE as XFCE with its tools isn’t the right desktop environment for my workflow and I don’t want to wait for Mate. AFAYK I can’t stand cluttered design so I made a consistent login-, splash- and wallpaper experience for my 1920×1200 screen which should fit other resolutions (hopefully), too. To keep the colour mostly steady there are two different styles for xplanetFX – one with post FX one without.

The xplanetFX theme is available in the UI or on the website for manual installation and the KDM and Ksplash themes can be downloaded here:

When bugs are eliminated I’ll upload this stuff to KDE-look.org.
