Nimbus on Ubuntu
Nimbus, the default theme on
Solaris Desktop is my favorite.
I'm mainly using Solaris Nevada for my work but sometime using Ubuntu too. I was wondering if this cool theme could be also usable on Ubuntu. I found it's available from,
.deb packages should be available from the above page but I could not get them, so I tried to build them from sources.
The build was easy. There are some additional steps needed, which was described in comment.
A set of Nimbus icons is also provided.
Window decorator is Nimbus.
