| | GNOME - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | KDE is a free software desktop environment that relies on the Qt toolkit — a piece of software written by Trolltech that did not use a free software license. | | | The Desktop is then further combined with other software (such as a kernel) to create a fully-functional computer system, such as a GNU/Linux distribution or Sun Microsystems' Solaris. | | | The GNU Network Object Model Environment, or GNOME, project is an international effort to create an easy-to-use computer desktop environment built entirely from software considered free by the Free Software Foundation. |

| | An idea for the Gnome 3 desktop (I know that is completely devoid of originality, but I feel like by making a start, and giving users/designers a way of giving input, a more original look can be developed over time). | | | GNOME does NOT work on thinclients very well now (if you login on two machines, only one gets gconf working, apps opening on the other display if already running etc. --- this is not GNOME proper, I know...) and it should be designed without neglecting networked environments like it seems now. | | | The idea being that icons pop up on the left side of the screen when information is being inputted into the computer (like a file being downloaded or a camera transferring information to a program) and information being sent from the computer (like printing or just sending a file) appears on the right hand side. |

What this means is that in Gnome 2.6, by default, Nautilus works and behaves a lot like the classic Macintosh Finder. | | | Microsoft Windows XP and earlier versions of Gnome take a browser-like approach to file management: Folder windows have Forward and Back buttons, as well as an address field that can be changed to bring up the contents of a different folder. | | | Thanks to the wonderful Garnome project, I've been playing around with prereleases of Gnome 2.6, and I think I have found a user interface that Grandma can love. |
