ROSA Desktop Fresh R1

Postby viking60 » 16 Jun 2013, 01:00

ROSA has announced their new desktop -Fresh R1.
It will come with support for the Windows cloud Azure and Steam will be set up. Regarding the desktop It is new that ROSA also will come with Gnome and LXDE.
Desktop Environment:
Thanks to new rasterizer from Adobe and Google, font smoothing has been improved significantly.
ROSA graphical theme has got a lot of modifications, including new decoration for window titles (with "shadow" support), renewed set of widgets included in RocketBar by default, brand-name ROSA Elementary theme for Chromuim/Google Chrome and updated QgtkStyleAlt theme engine with several bug fixes.
The primary desktop environment - KDE - has been updated to version 4.10.3 (the freshest one as of the end of the May, 2013). Besides the update itself, several issues have been fixed (including some upstream problems and regressions). Several localization issues have been fixed, as well.
Updated versions of the system with Gnome and LXDE desktop environments will be presented later.


Timeframe which is good for business use, has been improved. And you will now be able to drag the icons around on the menu.
It looks good:

They are a bit to fond of clouds though. Even if the clouds in Russia are safer than in the US - it is no good business to leave your data to others.
Manjaro 64bit on the main box -Intel(R) Core(TM) i7 CPU 920 @ 2.67GHz and nVidia Corporation GT200b [GeForce GTX 275] (rev a1. + Centos on the server - Arch on the laptop.
