Hang on a sec I'll get links to everything.

Icons: http://kernow-hosting.com/~bvc/gnomer/icons/mmx_icons.html

Theme (2nd one down): http://www.users.monornet.hu/linux/index2.html

Login Manager: http://art.gnome.org/themes/gdm_greeter/92

Background: http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/teams/art.g...OME-Desktop.png

As for getting them working, for the wallpaper just right click on your desktop go to change desktop background then click on install and browse to wherever you installed.

Login manager go to System-->Administration--->Login screen setup. Then go to graphical greeter click install and browse to whever you downloaded the .tar.gz install it and then make sure in the login screen setup you have it selected with the circle.

Theme and icons: Download them then go to: System-->preferences-->Theme. Then go to install theme, browse to the .tar.gz and it'll install it for you, then select it and go to theme details then go to 'icons' tab and click install, then go to wherever you downloaded the icons to and install them. Then select the theme you first installed in theme preferences.

Then just make the taskbars silvery and because the wallpaper doesn't fit try to make the background solid colour a colour which kind of blends in.

Didn't know how much info you wanted so.....

    • Dell, HP PCs ran into endless reboot, BitLocker recovery loops but Windows 11 isn't to blame

      By eiffel_g · Posted

      Funny, but I didn't had the issue. All PC's at work are Dell and we had the culprit version of Support Assist for about 2 weeks until we got the new one. No problem at all. And for checking you can also use Dell Command Update, no need to search in windows settings. Just check the Upgrade History.

    • Apple's AI smart glasses and Vision headset plans reportedly delayed, again

      By AnalystDan · Posted

      Apple are scared of their customers! They have built a brand over the years of "it just works out of the box", but that slows innovation. Samsung's master stroke was the Galaxy Ultra: "Let's cram everything into one handset, make it so stupid only real nerds will love it, some of the features will work, some won't, but the audience will have such a high tolerance they won't care". Apple has no such device and so they are constantly worrying these days about the fallout of creating a new experience that customers might not like. I know it is often cited the reason they don't build a touchscreen Mac Book is they don't want to cannibalise the the iPad market, but I think it's equally cold feet after the criticism Microsoft receive trying to make a touch compatible desktop OS

      So, an article that has nothing to do with Windows 11, still gets Windows 11 in the title and a build number as the picture? Dell have a buggy build of Support Assist HP have UEFI settings that need unlocking for the secureboot cert upgrade to take place.
