My modern machine uses an Ubuntu Xenial-era custom version of Puppy Linux with an XFCE desktop.

It's lighter than Xubuntu and boots off USB that can be removed to run completely in ram.

Kali Linux 2021.2 on a Thinkpad T61 running Xfce with Intel Core 2 Duo T7700 @ 2.40GHz, 4GB PC2-5300 RAM, Intel Mobile GM965/GL960 GPU, 100GB HDD @ 7200RPM, Ultrabay Slim CD-RW/DVD-ROM Combo II Drive, Intel HD Audio and TFT 14.1" 1440x900 (WXGA+) widescreen.

Kali 2021.3 kali-rolling on the same Thinkpad T61 as above.

Not sure when I posted my last one... my system changes slowly, maybe imperceptibly to others.
Anyhow:

Still Archlinux.

I never know what to do with all this memory...

Good ol' Bodhi Linux. Haven't run across anyone running that OS in a while. The originator of that distribution, Jeff Hoogland, was a regular on Scot's Newsletter Forums, where I'm an Admin, for quite a few years. Haven't run across him in a while, though.

I am indeed bodhi fan, I especially like it runs fast even on old hardware, and ubuntu/deb base makes it easy/generic for all the non desktop specific stuff. But the reason I replied is cuz your link is dead (or requires sign-in) and I was curious.... but yeah Jeff started this distro and afaik is no longer a contributor, just a user, and not even an active one... last I heard he quit his day job to make money live-streaming games, but that was few years ago....

But anyway, this is a screenshot thread, so here's another, from my decade old laptop, plex server, and primary pc....

Hi, @enigma9o7...

Yes, Ooops! I forgot that you have to be a registered member at Scot's Newsletter Forums to access the Member pages. That's all the link was... a Jeff Hoogland profile page from that forum.

Jeff has his own website, by the way... https://jeffhoogland.com/. I don't know how active/updated it is, though.

Bodhi was/is an outstanding distribution. I had a couple friends back in the day who swore by it. Best thing about GNU/Linux... you get to use what works best for you!

Fluxbox on Mageia v. 8.

Waking up to that face every morning must be fun, @frankbell.

vtel57, thanks for the chuckle.

Actually, with Fluxbox, I use fbsetbg to rotate the wallpaper every [unit time]. If I'm using Plasma, I use the "slideshow" desktop setting to do the same thing. Over the years, I have collected many purty pictures and I like to enjoy them all.

Hey, Frank...

You said, "Over the years, I have collected many purty pictures and I like to enjoy them all."

Indeed, yes. I have quite the collection of desktop images on my system. Currently, I'm in "seasonal" mode (Autumn), so oranges, browns, etc. I'll be switching over to Thanksgiving mode in a week or so.

I like variety in desktops. I've customized wallpapers on my systems since all the way back into my Windoze daze. It's much easier and more fun in Slackware, though.

Today's desktop...
