Anyone know where I can download the mythbuntu theme for use with an existing mythtv box?

http://packages.ubuntu.com/hardy/mythtv-theme-mythbuntu

Thanks man, I was able to get that deb and I used # ar -x <name>.deb to get the files out. I manually placed them in /usr/share/mythtv/themes and was able to load the 8.04 theme into my mythfrontend. The screen went black and I was back at the x desktop. I got a number of missing file errors when I launched it from the console. Is it a permission's problem?

is there some reason why you didn't install it the normal way?

apt-get install mythtv-theme-mythbuntu

apt-get install mythtv-theme-mythbuntu

Couldn't find package. I did an apt-get update prior to the install:

# apt-get install mythtv-theme-mythbuntu
Reading package lists... Done
Building dependency tree... Done
E: Couldn't find package mythtv-theme-mythbuntu

What do I need to add to my /etc/apt/sources.list to see it?

Forgot to mention, I'm using R5.5 of Knoppmyth (http://knoppmyth.net/) which is based on the debian unstable, so I don't wanna roach my system in the process :)

Here's my /etc/apt/sources.list:#Debian repos
deb http://ftp.debian.org unstable main contrib non-free
deb-src http://ftp.debian.org stable main contrib non-free

#For libnet-upnp
deb http://debian.slimdevices.com unstable main

#For FreeNX
#deb http://packages.debianbase.de/testing/i386/nx/ ./

#For xorg-edit
#deb http://debian.geole.info/ sid main contrib non-free

#For additional multimedia packages
deb http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main
deb-src http://www.debian-multimedia.org sid main
#deb http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/os/Linux/distributions/debian-multimedia unstable main
#deb-src http://ftp.sunet.se/pub/os/Linux/distributions/debian-multimedia stable main

It would have been helpful to say that first. Of course the mythbuntu theme is not going to be in the debian repos.

I would suggest to download the deb file and install it with dpkg.

Its also dependent upon the project grayhem themes. You need to install those first for it to work.
