This tip is for lovers of the SUSE chameleon.

I recently found a site called Geeko Builder that allows you to customize the mascot of OpenSUSE GNU / Linux, the famous green chameleon, so very easy.

In it we can create multiple characters, for this visit:

    * Http://www.geekobuilder.com/


Register and use your creativity! After the customization is possible to save as wallpaper, avatar or icon.

See how was my "Geek Jedi" protecting a server, it's nice idea!

So I'm sending mine to serve as the basis for those trying.

# CONSOLEFONT: found in /usr/share/kbd/consolefonts (only needed for non-US)
