Aspire One: Wallpaper + removing the search bar

My wallpaper…

Got tired of the standard wallpaper and made my own. Feel free to download it in 1024×600 and use it on your A1.

Also, found out how to remove the ugly search bar from the desktop:

* Press Alt+F2 and type “xterm”.

* Write “su -” and type your root password.

* Edit the file “/usr/share/search-bar/start-search_bar.sh” with your tool of choice.

* Comment out all lines that start with “acer-search-desktop”. That is, place a # in front of them, save the file and exit the editor you’re using.

This is how your file should look when you are done:

#!/bin/sh
#resolution=`xrandr |grep \*|awk ‘{print $1}’`
resolution=`xrandr |grep current|awk -F”current” ‘{print $2}’|awk -F”,” ‘{print $1}’|sed ‘s/\ //g’`

if [ $resolution = "1280x800" ];then
# acer-search-desktop –x=650 –y=90 –width=490 –height=31
elif [ $resolution = "1024x600" ];then
# acer-search-desktop –x=510 –y=65 –width=490 –height=31
elif [ $resolution = "1024x768" ];then
# acer-search-desktop –x=510 –y=80 –width=490 –height=35
else
# acer-search-desktop
fi
