I know a bunch of you have been asking about how to get AWN or avant-window-navigator to look like this:
Black Theme: ![]() Milk Theme: ![]() INFO Now to clarify this, this will just be a dock style. If you don't like it you can easily revert to the "Flat Bar" or "3D Look". This is in early development and it 's quite stable, This is AWN so it will require a window composter such as Beryl or Compiz. This will not change your icons to OSX style like the first image. The screen-shot provided above has had those changes made to it. i don't care much for those icons, but meek has given me the link to the set he used: here. To change the icon of a launcher right click then change icon I won't enclose an image of my dock because I don't know how to get a high-res screenshot like the other ones. Installation Now for the fun part! If you have avant already installed, remove it: Code:
sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/awn* sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/avant* sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/awn sudo rm -f /usr/local/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/avant-window-navigator.mo sudo rm -f /usr/local/share/applications/avant* sudo rm -f /usr/local/share/applications/awn* sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/avant-window-navigator sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/libawn* sudo rm -rf /usr/local/include/libawn sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/libawn* sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/awn.pc sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/awn-core-applets sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/awn/ Applications/ Accessories/ Terminal Code:
sudo apt-get install bzr m4 gnome-common (I know it seems tempting but copy the first two lines one at a time.) Code:
sudo apt-get install build-essential autotools-dev libxdamage-dev libxcomposite-dev libgnome2-common libgnome2-dev libgnome-desktop-dev libgnome-vfs-dev libgtk2.0-dev libwnck-dev libgconf2-dev libglib2.0-dev libdbus-glib-1-dev libgnomevfs2-0 libgnome-desktop-2 libgnome2-0 libwnck-common python-gtk2 python-gconf bzr gnome-common python-dev python-gtk2-dev python-cairo-dev python-gconf python-gnome2-dev bzr co http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~awn-curves-team/awn/awn-curves awn-curves cd awn-curves ./autogen.sh && make sudo make install make sure you have your AWN repositories, input the corresponding code into the terminal: 32-BIT Code:

A: System > prefernces > sessions then add this command: Code:
avant-window-navigator A: Do this: Code:
cd ~/awn-curves bzr update ./autogen.sh && make && sudo make install A: Make sure to actually select it, click apply then refresh awn. If it still doesn't go, close awn, apply the theme in awn manager them open awn. Q: Awn isn't launching!!! A: Type both these commands one after the other into terminal and give me the output. Code:
avant-window-navigator Code:
awn-manager A: To re-launch awn just press ALT+F2 and type "avant-window-navigator" to launch awn once more. Q: Can I Hide my awn-curves folder located in my home folder when done? A: Yes! You can do so by adding a period in front of the name so it looks like this: .awn-curves . To see it when needed, press Control+H or go View, Show Hidden Files. REMOVAL To remove awn-curves: Delete the awn-curves directory from your home folder then: Code:
sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/awn* sudo rm -f /usr/local/bin/avant* sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/awn sudo rm -f /usr/local/share/locale/*/LC_MESSAGES/avant-window-navigator.mo sudo rm -f /usr/local/share/applications/avant* sudo rm -f /usr/local/share/applications/awn* sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/avant-window-navigator sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/libawn* sudo rm -rf /usr/local/include/libawn sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/libawn* sudo rm -f /usr/local/lib/pkgconfig/awn.pc sudo rm -rf /usr/local/share/awn-core-applets sudo rm -rf /usr/local/lib/python2.5/site-packages/awn/ (I had to look for this for ages then i found something on google telling me how to do this then I found the actual site a week later.) ![]() Hope this can help!
