    Oneiric Ocelot 11.10 Themes

    Where can I go so that I can download more themes for my desktop?I've tried multiple times to download Equinox,but its not available for 11.10 yet,I guess.Somewhere I found the Faenza icons,but I can't download those either,because it can't find them.I'm able to download the PPA's for them just fine.When I get to the actual set,it says that it "can't find it".Are there any additional themes that I can download for Oneiric Ocelot?

    Ahh,thank you,I managed to download a few great themes from there,& wallpapers too.Do you have an idea if Emerald & Beryl are available for 11.10?I tried searching for them in the software center,but I couldn't find them.What exactly are they used for when it comes to the themes?I'm just getting used to using gnome-tweak,& its very simple,compared to CCSM.

    beryl is no longer in existence, it was the name of compiz prior to the change of name (possibly a handover of developers also, not sure there). Anything beryl is outdated as far as I know, some people still use it on older Ubuntu machines but this is not needed in newer versions as compiz is the default handler for Unity. Emerald I believe is also being phased out. Emerald causes segmentation faults for Unity with the current version of compiz, this guide may be of use (although personally I don't see the point of using emerald any more).

    deviant-art

    caedes.net
