Damn, is that right? Well I seen a picture where this guy posted a screenshot where he was able to get it done. Maybe he hacked it somehow to make it work. I didn’t really pay attention much to the post but now I wish I did because he explained how he did it. Oh well, I’ll still keep trying to find it.
thanks
we can fix it in ubuntu tweak now too
it works now
i just tried again after getting updates
but it looks funny coz it was designed to go on the left and yeah i have to change the theme too
Cool, I knew it must’ve been easier than a complicated hack, especially because of the way it was described in the post.
Personally, I like the way Lucid Lynx looks. That’s one of the cool things about Linux, you never know what to expect. I mean, why do people want to remain inside of a box. Linux in my view is to help people think differently so the fact that they are changing it is a good sign. Besides, most OS’s look the same anyways.
As far as it looking like a OSX, this doesn’t really bother me. Once they release Lucid they might change the theme again or you can change it yourself, so what’s the problem?
yeah i like it too now i have managed to switch the window decoration buttons back to the right hand side
yay
yeh it was my screwed upgraded from karmic to lucid that didnt work right but my clean install of lucid works
Great!
ubuntgeek(.)com as a solution that’ll switch the close, minimize and restore buttons
and it is a one liner in the terminal window apparently:
I haven’t tried it though i’m too scared right cause the ubuntu box is the only one that is running just now.
gconftool-2 –set /apps/metacity/general/button_layout –type string :minimize,maximize,close
i trust ubuntugeek to be right on matters relating to ubuntu though.
Very interesting.
I use the 8.04 LTS, and I use de computer to do basic tasks. I wonder if
I shall go to this new version or continue
using the old one. I am not an expert and
I am affraid of something going wrong in
the transition. Any way you video is very
interesting. Thank you very much.
Best regards,

This is a very nice video about OS X.
Looks like an OSX clone.
Osx tears?
Oh good point. This must be Unubunutuo bro.
errr left, excuse me…
@liekomgl33t haha yeah iv changed it back to the right now
@roboticterror yep it does a bit and I don’t like mac os x look
I’ve noticed that at 0:26 when you resize the windows, it’s ‘live’ like in Windows- is this by default or did you change some setting? In Karmic Koala, when I changed the setting for resizing windows to ‘Normal,’ it was a bit buggy as the windows border kept flashing when resizing. Has this been fixed in Lucid Lynx?
P.S. Why no videos on Linux Mint 9 Isadora?
Mint 9 is not available for download yet, is it????????
na this is just a new install of Lucid Lynx
when will they have new wubi? the existing wubi is having issues when you update the grub.
oh really?
p.s. updating grub can screw a normal install of linux too sometimes so maybe its not a problem with wubi but with grub
@OSGUIShow
Have you tried out the new youtube layout?
you can get it by going to youtube . com / watch5?enable=1
and disable it by replacing 1 with a 0.
thanks for the tip
yeah I HATE it
@OSGUIShow I hate it too. I really, really hate it. The only cool thing is that the video doesn’t stop when you search for a different vid etc.
yeah but they have removed 5 star rating and hidden community features
