Monday December 17, 2007 Nimbus Look and Feel For Linux
One facet that I like most on SXDE is the L&F (Nimbus). It is a look-and-feel designed by Sun for the Java Desktop System and set as a default L&F on SXDE. Nimbus is just adorable and neat on your desktop giving your desktop a clean and professional look. Fortunately if you are running Linux, you can still get this L&F.1. Get the theme from http://www.gnome-look.org .
2. Use dpkg -i to install the debs. Or use a package manager like GDebi.
It works on Ubuntu-Gutsy. It may work on all Deb distros.
Here is a snapshot:

What are the restrictions for the Gnome compatibility? When I run Netbeans on my Ubuntu Gutsy, it doesn't look anything like the Gnome applications, it looks like it has no style at all.

Mikael,
There are no restrictions for Gnome compatibility. I did not do anything special on my Gutsy. After installing and opening NetBeans, it just looked like any other native app. When I change the Gnome theme, NetBeans' L&F also changes.
