Slightly old, but only recently have I found a decent host for huge desktop shots. (Or atleast they appear to be decent so far.)
Damn I sure love
x11-wm/openbox. Not only does it work well, but by being able to right click anywhere, and get my menu, it saves mouse movements back and forth to a taskbar/application menu. Have been in motorcycle wrecks over the years, etc, and my right arm/hand just hurts a lot of the time anymore.
You can also set up
x11-wm/transset-df with
x11-wm/openbox to be able to ctrl+scroll the titlebar and set the transparency on windows individually. In 3Ds Max, sometimes a person will set an image on a plane, and use the line tool to trace it. I can just open an image in
graphics/mirage and drop it behind my
emulators/virtualbox-ose window with a slight transparency, and trace it that way. Saves time, and I can flip through images easier, rather than setting up multiple planes, or going back into the material editor each time.
Put together a tiny script, and inserted it in my
.config/autostart.sh to overclock my Nvidia card. Normally runs at 500/800, am running at 601/1001. Temps and info shown in
sysutils/conky. Without the script, the overclock isn't persistent across reboots.
Recently went in and redone my
/etc/X11/xorg.conf,
x11/nvidia-xconfig had originally set up my monitors for 1080P, and I was having to overscan to get a fill. Set the modeline, and a few other things, getting dot to dot now.
Random, but if youre buying a LCD TV for PC use, make sure it supports 4:4:4 Chroma. Am loving my new dual 40"s, but I'm not bragging, and I rarely spend cash on myself, was my Christmas present to me.
But most of all, I love FreeBSD! It just works so well, and after how smooth the recent updates/upgrades to 9.0-RELEASE went, am very pleased. Posted awhile back about upgrading, and thought I might not bother, but I think it was the jump from 7.2-8.0 which gave me a little trouble last time.
Clicky for large.
