That appears to be for theming GTK3 window themes, not the shell theme. I'm talking about shell themes like Zukitwo, Elegance or SLAVE.

Does anyone know of any guides on how to design a gnome-shell theme from scratch? I plan to design a Gnome-Shell theme based on the elegant look of the cover of Frank Herbert's Dune (and the...

I'm using the latest version accessible via apt-get on 12.04, but it may be heavily outdated, I don't know. The clock doesn't actually seem to have that setting you mentioned, so this is sort of...

I've heard of Bodhi Linux, but I didn't really want to switch distros and have to go through the hassle of copying over all my stuff to an external drive, and my tiny 32gb ssd doesn't have room for a...

I've started using E17, and so far I really like it. But it has some crucial issues that, if I can't find a way to solve, will make me return to Gnome-Shell. Can anyone help with these issues?

Why?

I can think of many.

First is freedom. Many will argue that they will never make use of that freedom anyways, but even if you never do, you still want to have that freedom. Is freedom of speech...

Here on my netbook I use Gnome Shell too. I've tried KDE, and I may migrate my desktop to that. LXDE is incredibly fast, but going that route I may just use Openbox or Fluxbox. E17 seems OK. But the...

The best I've found is Clementine. But be aware, it pretty muhc only does music. No podcasts, no videos. The UI is pretty slick though, and it's MUCH faster than banshee.

Thanks, they were really just a quick merge and recolor of the two. And I agree, the orange one was a bit dull. I made them ages ago after switching to gnome shell and used them each for a few weeks...

I would heavily recommend Flatstudio. You can get it here: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php/FlatStudio?content=154296
But I have a custom version, edited for unity here:...

What? They still seem to be up for me. I assume you mean you got a 404 error?

I've made a couple wallpapers in anticipation of the announced Gnome shell packing Ubuntu mix for those of us who currently use Gnome Shell with Ubuntu. It's a blend of the Gnome Shell default...

Alright, thanks. I'm sure I can find a QT recreation of the ambiance theme and tweak it to my needs to have the double left arrow minimize and square borders.

Try

dpkg-reconfigure lightdm
Also, did you misstype and mean sudo apt-get install? If not, try installing again with sudo, you need root access to install applications.

So there is no way to force it to use GTK3? I really doubt I can recreate it just by changing the colors around, I combined the double left arrow minimize ambiance tweak with the ambiance square...

I've been thinking about switching to KDE, but their's one thing I really need if I'm going to switch. I need to be able to use GTK3 theming in KDE, including using a custom GTK theme. I know I can...

3.5 may not be at a stable release yet, but kernel.org clearly has a download for it, and I like using the newest, most cutting edge software. And compiling offers more flexibility than using a ppa....

I've heard the ck kernel patchset can improve performance on many systems. However, although 3.5-rc7 appears to be the latest kernel, it says to patch 3.4. Is there a patch available for the latest...

Thanks for the help.

A while back, I installed Zsh and set it to be used instead of bash. Even with my minimal, newbish config it seems far better than what came with bash. But the one thing I miss from bash is some...
