Linux Themes

Adventures in theme installing.

Step one- Downloaded GTK+ theme, dragged it into my theme manager, instant change. Violia!

Step two - Trying to install compiz fusion and emerald beryl theme manager. Doesn't exist for debian so I am compiling it from source.

Simple, ./configure, make, make install.

So far to get this simple process to work, I've installed 5 applications, each claiming to need one program, and really wanting the -dev version of it, usually a library.

Oop, got some fun errors on the make command. Non-reproducable error = hardware/os issue. Fun.

I don't think I'm going to continue down this path....but we can mark up one score for the computer.
