I just installed ubuntu and want to install a theme
http://www.ubuntuthemes.org/overglossed.html
i downloaded it and tried to install it but when I did it said that GDT + theme is not installed. I looked it up and found that I had to install them from synaptic package manager, I did it but still not working. How can I solve it?
I installed some gtk-2 themes and was using the but after changing to a new theme they went away from the theme manager I checked in the theme folder they are still in there but only halve of the themes show up in the theme manager how do I get them all to show or at lest the ones I want to.

After that when I login in facebook and click anything in facebook, my pc log out, even from root user.
cause & solution of this problem.
already having used it on my very bad laptop,with minimal enjoyment. now, i'm running fc13 through virtual box on my quadcore 6gb ddr3 hp pavilion, and i can say, i finally know what compiz feels like well, i've gotten compiz, and emerald, and i'm happy with what it has to offer. yet, when i scroll through linux videos videos, the windows open in the desktop have very nice window glossy effects. for instance, through emerald, i can get my titlebar to be nice and glossy. through my default window themer, i can get my panel to be glossy as well.
however, in these videos, for example, when they have a bash shell open, the whole window screen is uniformly glossy. unlike the default terminal appearance of black text on a white background, they have it looking much better. is it possible to configure emerald and/or other window themers to get this effect?
I have a single boot ubuntu installation (that I like very much) that I want to migrate to a larger hard drive that has an XP installation on it so that I can dual boot on one hard drive. I've already partitioned it.
So:
Hard drive A: has Ubuntu on it
Hard drive B: has two partitions, one XP the other one waiting for Ubuntu.
I'd rather not just install Ubuntu all over again as it was annoying to install the wireless dongle. among all the other secondary installations and tweaks that have been done.
I didn't post this thread in the hardware section because I got my ATI propitiatory drivers installed successfully and my problem seems to be with KDE. I'm trying to enable Desktop Effects for KDE.
The story is that ATI drivers installed correctly but when I go to "Application Launcher" => "System Settings" => "Desktop Effects" I can't enable Desktop effects and it has the following message:
"Desktop effects are not available on this system due to the following technical issues:
Required X extensions (XComposite and XDamage) are not available."
First of all I don't really know what this means. I have done some Googling around and have found a few places suggesting that I should enable the "Damage" and "Composite" extensions in my xorg.conf. I have done that, as you can see in the attached Xorg.conf file. It still doesn't work.
I just removed my previous linux install and installed Ubuntu Studio because of the nicer look.However the login screen is still the borin plain one. I have been to the "Login Screen" and tried to select theme as mentioned but it doesn't have any tabs or info for it.

I've tried using winetricks to get it working, since it's as good a starting point as any, but even if I do the program bails out on me constantly with:

winepath -u %ProgramFiles% returned empty stringles
in a box, or if I start winetricks from terminal.
What's wrong with it?
I installed a theme the other day, along with some fonts and some icons. Immediately after that, the time from logging in until I see the desktop is horrible, several minutes. I've removed (as best I can tell anyway) the theme, fonts, and icons, but the delay is still present. Any tips on where I might look to find the source of the trouble? I've tried moving to a different virtual terminal after logging in at the Gnome display manager (this is on ubuntu 8.10), so I could hopefully look at the running processes but the delay happens there as well. Once the desktop becomes visible everything seems to run at normal speed.

But after waking up computer by standby mode, wireless connection breaks and the wireless device is not mounted. Therefore I always have to shut down the computer and restart again to establish wireless connection.

I have a Sony Vaio VPCCW18FX, with a Nvidia GT 230M graphics card. The open source nouveau driver works fine, but does not run smoothly. The only problem here is that it's needed to run with "nomodeset".
If i just activate the Proprietary Nvidia driver and reboot, it will hang after writing "Checking battery State [ok]". I have tried to add EDID from Windows partition, and here it hangs at a blank black/grey screen. I have tried hooking up an external display, no output on it either.
I'm new to linux. I've just installed Ubuntu 11.04. It has all been going ok, but the wireless just stopped working all of a sudden. The indicator light turned off and when I tried to turn it back on (Fn+F2) nothing happens. Sometimes, when I restart the computer, the wireless might work; but if the signal is lost the LED on my laptop turns off and I cannot reconnect. Also, in these strange cases that the wireless works when I restart I can manually turn it off (Fn+F2), but nothing happens when I try to switch it back on.
In the menu on the upper right corner I see 'Enable Networking' is checked, but 'Enable Wireless' cannot be modified.
I have a Dell Inspiron 6400 and the wireless device is an Intel Pro/Wireless 3945ABG.
I have tried to follow some of the threads on this forum on similar cases, but the ones that were comprehensible to me did not work (or I actually might not have understood them either). code...
Everything was going fine. Once, I started my fedora 10 and I found out that no wireless driver is installed!!!
How can I check for this and fix this problem.
P.S. I am new to linux.
Just installed 9.10 netbook remix on my acer aspire one - No Wireless !

View 6 Replies View RelatedI was using ubuntu normaly until yesterday. Today when i turned on my laptop its theme was this way:[url]
When i first turn it on, the main panel (where stays "Applications", "Places" and "System") was this color too! But then i just opened System -> Preferences -> Appearance and it self-fixed, without selecting any option, just opening Appearance window.
But the rest of this stuff (like right-click menu and folders) is still messed up!
I just recently put Ubuntu 10.04 Lucid Lynx on my laptop with windows dual booting. I'm pretty new to all this stuff, so I'm a bit confused. I followed instructions I read on here, but none of it seems to be working. I put all of the 3 Ndiswrapper things on, and then copied the .inf and .sys files from windows into the same directory. I just want to connect to my home network, which has WEP security.

View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu 10.10 My wife wanted to use a new gtk-theme so she used the option "download more themes" and installed a new gtk-theme. The theme was not vissible for her so she just chose another default one. Now when ever either of us login into our accounts the default internal gtk-theme is used (the ugly grey square one). When we start the themes application (don't know the english name for it, it enables you to choose another theme for your desktop). The previously selected theme is then enabled even before the window of the util is shown.
View 8 Replies View RelatedEvery time I choose a theme in this thing, the system never switches over to it. Am I supposed to log out, then log back in again to enable the newly installed .emerald themes? I tried running "emerald --replace", but my system just screws up once I do that: The window decorations completely remove themselves and I am stuck with uncontrollable windows.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI am using Arch with Gnome 2.32 installed a couple weeks before Gnome 3 was out. And this means I use GTK 2 themes for GTK apps (if I'm not mistaken...). I have some awesome theme which I modified and my WM is IceWM, so it's just for GTK programs. And I don't wanna switch this theme to any other. So the question is: if I update Gnome 2 to Gnome 3, will my current GTK theme stop working? I won't update any piece of software untill the strong need, but I'm wondering if I'll be able to use my fave GTK 2 theme with newest Gnome.

View 2 Replies View RelatedI've been trying to get familiar with this over the past 24 hours or so. I assume I've been somewhat successful in what I'm attempting to do, as I can work my way around a bit now and use some terminal commands. However, there is this display problem I seem to be encountering with certain windows which is extremely putting off. When I click options like 'File' or 'Edit' in a window, this is what I get. Here are the screenshots below.
This is what I get when I click the 'Volume' button in the Panel at the bottom of the screen. I have tried changing the Desktop Appearance Settings, Theme Settings but nothing seems to work. Although this is not a performance issue, it is hampering my vision of the various available options, and I would like to resolve it at once.
