Download Atolm Theme

To install the theme, extract it and copy the Atolm-gtk3 folder to /usr/share/themes/, then use GNOME Tweak Tool to change the GTK theme.

 To install Atolm Mutter theme (for GNOME Shell)

1. press ALT + F2, enter "gconf-editor"
2. or sudo gconf-editor
3. navigate to desktop > gnome > shell > windows 
4. change the "theme" value to "Atolm-gtk3".
5. Please note that it's no longer required to copy the theme to ~/.themes/ too for the Mutter theme to work (tested on Fedora 15 and ubuntu natty 11.04 with all the packages up to date).
6. After changing the Mutter theme, remember to reload Gnome Shell (ALT + F2 and enter "r") or log out.

Use the following commands if the burg is not appeared after rebooting.(Installation of burg to MBR, usually it will be done automatically after burg install).

Remember to substitute ‘hd0′ with the drive on which your MBR is installed. This usually, but not typically, located on your primary HDD.

Amarok | Rediscover music!

For the newbies the default player in ubuntu is banashee.

But I recommend you to try Amarok.

It can be easily installed from ubuntu software center or Synaptic 

or

Also install the following codecs, the codecs ubuntu recommends is having some problem in my system, these are recommended by the amarok developers.

• libxine1-ffmpeg
• gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly

sudo apt-get install libxine1-ffmpeg gstreamer0.10-plugins-ugly

Also try clementine and exaile two mediaplayers inspired by amarok
