HP’s Dark-Themed Mini Look on Ubuntu Desktop

Posted on Feb 9, 2009 in ubuntu | 2 comments

Not so long ago, OpenSource have a little place on the laptop market, these days they’ve gone so far. It took a long time for me to make the switch, although not totally switch to *nix based operating systems and application, especially when I do graphics since I can’t find a replacement for PhotosShop. Just recently HP released its Mini 1000 Mi Edition and Loaded with Ubuntu 8.04 Hardy Heron with a dark theme of there own.

Here’s a screenshot via lifehacker:

You can download the themes here:

1. Click on /universe/.
2. Then go to /binary-lpia/
3. And look for these packages glassy-bleu-browser-skin_0.5_all.deb, glassy-bleu-theme_21_all.deb, gnome-backgrounds-hp_0.4_all.deb

Hope you enjoy your HP dark theme for ubuntu.
