The best Linux desktop: June 2014 - Results

With some delay, the 10 best desktops of the month of our followers arrive in Google+, Facebook y Diaspora. It was really very difficult to decide because they sent us excellent captures. However, some really good specimens were left out of the final list for not including the necessary details (system, environment, theme, icons, etc.). Please don't forget to include them next month and remember to use the hashtag #showyourdesktoplinux when posting your captures.

As always, there is a very interesting variety of distros, environments, icons, etc. To learn, imitate and enjoy! Will yours be on the list?

    I congratulate you, EVERYONE WINS !!! It is a creativity and a good way to show that having a distribution based on GNU / Linux is like clay in your hand, you mold it however you want.

  2.   Marcelo said

    That beauty !!!!! One better than the other !!!!. Impossible to choose one. Congratulations to all.

    Congratulations!
    One thing…
    Gnu / Linux distributions are not operating systems. (AND)

      It's true, but let's not get so exquisite, che! 🙂

      It was confusion in the terminology XD

    I fell in love with the first desktop is beautiful ArchLinux <3 I liked it so much that I am already starting to install ArchLinux on my PC ... you should do a tutorial on how to leave it as desktop No. 1 pleaseee

  8.   Leonardo said

    Ahh, carmba, what envy. But see what can be done with Linux. I was impressed that Arch has dominated this ranking.

  9.   static said

    Excellent congratulations

  10.   dannlinx said

    Great all; but would there be any way to get Jorge Dangelo's wallpaper ??
    PS: Beautiful font, which they use for comments, lol I had not realized

      Thanks for the comment. Cheers

  12.   CANNON said

    Very good all, but my favorites are 1, 2 and 4

  13.   Felix said

    I still don't understand how blind Mac OSX fans say their system is the prettiest. And they always classify Linux as ugly.

  14.   christian said

    Congratulations to those who personalized their desks like this. Very nice.

    I wonder are there any apps with which I can give a nice touch to a lxde?

    1.    Santiago Buendia said

      Try Cairo dock, Conky manager and Compiz.

      1.    Fermin Alberto said

        Hello Santiago, congratulations, your desk was the one I liked the most. Can you share what Conky settings you use and the wallpaper?
        Regards!

    2.    Tomas Del Valle said

      My distro is Lubuntu, practically all tools work fine on LXDE. I am recently experimenting with Compton to give nice effects to windows (shadows, transparencies, transitions, etc.) guiding me through this tutorial:

    [relief] Now we have to put a #hashtag apart from the required specifications? I mean, I kill myself by formatting my PC, changing from Debian Wheezy to Jessie and pugging my XFCE desktop as best as possible and publishing it in G + within the group of °> Linux, so that finally it is not included ?! [/relief]

    Seriously, the desks are very good, and they are good straws.

    Just in case, should we send the screenshots to the G+ fanpage that is embedded in this site? Because I have another group related to the blog and I have uploaded [url=http://foro.desdelinux.net/viewtopic.php?pid=21090#p21090]to the forum[/url] my screenshot from this month (if they allowed the screenshots that are sent to the forum...).

  16.   eliotime3000 said

    And by the way, in G +, I get this:

      Sorry, I already managed to send my screenshots to G + (cannot be accessed from Opera Mini).

    I already installed ArchLinux and everything was perfect that if very tedious in matters with Pulseaudio and those things however in the end I was left with XD…. the question is, how do I set my kde Arch desktop as desktop No. 1? Please can someone help me to put it like this, it would be of great help I am new using KDE and ArchLinux so a little help would be great for me

    1.    FIXOCONN said

      look on this same site that there are several posts on the subject

    2.    x11tete11x said

      I do not want to be bad vibes, but if you installed Archlinux only for the desktop, it was half to the fart ... xD, especially because it is KDE, and KDE is moldable in any distro, in fact desktop 1 is very similar to how Chakra Linux comes for default

    3.    jimmy said

      There in the image are all the specifications of my Desktop, of course if you have any problems tell me. I'm glad you liked it.

      1.    jose said

        first of all congratulations !!!!, your desktop is impressive,
        How can I combine the two icon packs?

  20.   nobody said

    Jorge Dangelo's the best and this 7 jaa

  21.   Coredie said

    I like them all but someone knows of a tutorial to tune the desktop so I liked the one that showed your crunchbang desktop if someone knows how to tune it so tell me how to thank you =)

  22.   Ocellan said

    Wow !!! the 2 has blown me away, there should be a tutorial on how to leave it like this 🙂

    1.    Tomas Del Valle said

      Thanks for your concepts !! For reasons of time, it would take me a bit to write a tutorial, however I remain at your service to support you as much as possible so that you enjoy this experience that allows you to customize your desktop.

  23.   oscar marquez said

    Linux desktop looks very good, what if it drives me crazy is how difficult it is to put a link, at least in Ubuntu 14.04 with Unity 7

  24.   Jose said

    A Modern UI desktop would look good like Windows 8.1 on Linux: 3

  25.   pepper said

    The best desk is the one that everyone creates and uses as they please. Impossible to say or consider that these desks are the best, or rather, better because ???? Strongly disagree. But I will not deny that they are pretty.

  26.   patodx said

    the 2nd, great.
    and the 6th, bakan.

  27.   Juan Carlos said

    The 1 and 7 are the best. The rest, I am not impressed. And the 9 takes the prize for the most horrible, what a way to ugly KaOS.

  28.   TheGuillox said

    The 2 undoubtedly the best, the only thing I did not like was that icon on the dock that does not match the others.

  29.   tzekelkan27 said

    Very good 🙂

  30.   Aztk said

    Very nice. The different distributions and environments that are in Linux are so moldable ... more than Windows. You can make a distro talk about you. Congratulations to everyone who has such nice desks.

  31.   bdov said

    Jimmy Pulido's # 1 desktop is PEPA, how bad it is in KDE that it consumes a lot of system resources on old, low-resource PCs. I would like this desktop to be built in LXDE or XFCE, since they are very light desktops and do not consume a lot of system resources.

    Someone who can pass me the wallpaper of the first
