- dualscreenman, on 10/26/2008, -0/+4I'm not against Gnome implementing such a desktop paradigm-- I believe the desktop paradigm presented here is the future of the Linux Desktop and that any DE worth its salt will eventually have to implement such a desktop. However, to answer the question posed by the submission's title, I must assert that the ideas presented in the article are by no means new nor GNOME innovations. Just credit to where credit is due.
- Yollasho, on 10/26/2008, -0/+4I just want two different backgrounds for my dual monitor setup. Come on gnome.
- inactive, on 10/26/2008, -0/+2The problem isn't that there aren't any good ideas out there, it's that the ***** GNOME developers are too big of pussies to break status quo and do something bold. GNOME is the most boring desktop environment ever made.
- dualscreenman, on 10/25/2008, -1/+3KDE/Plasma sort've beat them to this.
- Darkx1337, on 10/26/2008, -0/+1I don't a dual screen support but couldn't you just attach the two wallpapers together and make one big one? I did that in windows.
- DeathsShadow77, on 10/26/2008, -0/+1agreed. I was just looking into this today actually.
- sloppychris, on 10/26/2008, -1/+2Yeah my words are a little harsher than I wanted them to be. I'm just so bothered by all the infighting that goes on in the linux community. We're fragmented enough, I just don't want it to get any worse.
- sloppychris, on 10/25/2008, -3/+2Haven't you heard? Comments like these are stupid, immature, and do nothing but segregate the community and slow down development and adoption.
