Fansy desktop ( big image)

CDE, what else? Running in Xvfb , served to RISC OS with Xvnc.

Awww I still love CDE! For me one of the best desktop ever with NextStep and the original macOS.

Nicely done Michael! :)

Awww I still love CDE!

Yes it is great. More like a nice WM rather then desktop. My setup with Xvfb is very nice. Having a gui session running all the time without running X11 to display on the host.

I like NeXT and OPENSTEP as a concept, but not the window management.

Used to work at a large telecommunications company in the 90’s. The development workstations we used were from SUN, CDE on Solaris was a perfect combination.

I have a Solaris machine gathering dust. Unfortunately the power supply’s dead and it’s a non-standard one :(

Sun Ultra 5 by any chance ?

I too have a Sun Ultra 5 that hasn’t been switched on in a couple of years!

CDE is open source and I use it on Linux.

CDE is the official desktop of Acorn Computers Ltd … ahem.

Sun Ultra 5 by any chance ?

Nah, mine’s not a Sun machine, just a Lenovo with official support.
