The Ubuntu 7.04 fever is spreading fast. I downloaded and installed it today. I also wrote a small installation guide for all newbies. Here it is:

Enjoy!!!

Any feedback would be welcome...

Excellent Guide there my friend , why dont u pu a copy of it on the TE Forums Guide section.

Gr8 guide dude.. Plz post at Te too. Got very help from that gr8 guide indeed Awesome work

Thanks for ur comments ppl!!!
I'll put the same on TE if adequate no. of people are interested.

Quite Good.....

Nice work...

What all softwares + themes will be required to get this sort of desktop for ubuntu.



I want my ubuntu to look like this.

I suppose it's a Vista theme for GNOME. Try searching GNOME-Look.org for the same. I'll try doing it too...
Here's a Vista theme fro gnome-look.org:
LiNsta 3 (Linux is Not Vista) GNOME-Look.org

Beryl Vista Theme:
Beryl-project.org


Also try this:
Zooomr Photo Sharing :: Photos from teen
Vista + Ubuntu = Vubuntu « Teenage tantrums.

U can even try some cool Mac themes along with the uber cool mac taskbar.

The icons used on the screenshot are NuoveXT, I think, but there are also some custom icons pulled from different themes (Firefox looks like its take from Polar theme or something like that, trashcan seems to be from Mist, but I'm not sure).

Don't know about the GTK theme, I'm not particularly fond of Vista-esque themes myself
The window manager is either Emerald (from Beryl) or Compiz - transparencies are obviously enabled.

Look through gnome-look.org and see what you can find.

LOL, it was way too easy bro, just follow this guide:
Vista + Ubuntu = Vubuntu « Teenage tantrums.

Here's the Ubuntu 7.04 desktop i got after following the above guide:



All the best to u too... and do post ur Desktop too.

Thanx man ... nice guide

Hey, i just updated my Ubuntu blog page with loads of info about installing and running Beryl 3D desktop and also about using the Synaptic package manager. Check it out now:

Fun with GNU/Linux!: Fun&

i have also made some videos, will put it up soon.

Hey Quaddy?

U asked about changing the look of ur Ubuntu dekstop to Vista style.

I posted some links for the same, but u haven't replied yet...

waiting for ur reply...

Bro i am really sorry busy with my Viva studies and totally forgot about this thread.

Thanks a lot will give these suggestions a try and get back to u.

His desktop is exactly what i want but i am not able to find this.


Aero MAC:- *Aero MAC GNOME-Look.org


He says that he has used "Whiteribbion" but i didnt find a download for it.

I was able to install linsta3 but thats not what i want.

also whats metacity ??

Metacity is the default window manager for GNOME, just like u have compiz and Beryl 3D window managers.

i also couldn't find that theme...
