Gstyle is an application that allows you to manage and customize all the aspects of Ubuntu from GRUB to the desktop. Gstyle can manage and install gtk themes, icons, wallpapers, window decoration and your GDM (and more!!).
All themes downloaded from gnome-look and deviantart can be installed with a few clicks. Gstyle itself provides full-pack themes downloading. To install Gstyle open a Terminal window (Applications -> Accessories -> Terminal) and copy+paste the following lines:
sudo apt-add-repository ppa:s-lagui
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install gstyle
When installed you can find Gstyle under System -> Preferences -> Gstyle.

did everything and it is in the system/pref folder and will think about running and then just stop and go away
I had the same problem and after reinstalling gstyle it worked. But can’t tell you what causes the problem.
Hi
I have installed Gstyle and it worked good for some days!
But after some dayes I can’t open it any more!
I have installed p7 zip and I reinstalled Gstyle again but I still have the same problem and I it dosen’t open the program
Is there any help please?
I’ll really be thankful
I have no idea why GStyle is not or sometimes working. Maybe the application is not stable or … ? I really have no idea, sorry.
Hi Tinuz
I installed it on Linux Mint 11 i386 and it works!!!!!
I got this working and looks nice. I have noticed something funny though, I have installed/uninstalled ubuntu 11.04 a few times. and everytime I install it something doesn’t seem to work the same as the previous time, maybe it’s just weird, but I thought I shared my experience.
i know what you mean and sometimes it happens … and yes it is weird 🙂
