Ubuntu studio new look

i was looking at the release of ubuntu studio and i was impressed by their new gdm theme,wallpaper,icon set and boot splash but installing the whole distro was of no use to me and so installed just the themes and i love this new look .

Boot splash

GDM theme

and now how to get them

From your terminal run the following two commands

sudo su -c 'echo deb http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio feisty main >> /etc/apt/sources.list’
wget -q http://archive.ubuntustudio.org/ubuntustudio.gpg -O- | sudo apt-key add - && sudo apt-get update

and then

sudo apt-get install ubuntustudio-theme ubuntustudio-icontheme ubuntustudio-icon ubuntustudio-wallpaper ubuntustudio-artwork

and then to set the boot splash screen ,this command should work

sudo update-alternatives --config usplash-artwork.so

This will display all the available boot splash themes on your system and choose the studio one .

and to set the gdm theme , exec

sudo gdmsetup
choose the studio theme ,similarly for icon and theme

sudo gnome-theme-manager
and choose

Enjoy the new look :)
