Help getting Linux look in XP
Thursday, January 26, 2006 by Mediakill | Discussion: OS Customization
Hi. Wanted to know if there was any way to make windows xp look like linux- kde ,gnome etc Maybe using objectbar or external programs to help achieve this effect. Seen alot of stuff for mac and vista look but not much on linux.If someone can point me in the right direction that'd be greatly appreciated

Yeah considered that but had problems with it crashing, hanging up. Thanks if you guys have any other suggestions on customizing for linux also looking for linux icons for windows if you guys know of any links, iconpackager or otherwise. Found the many tux wallpaper sites already though

Hoverdesk can do that. Look at www.hoverdesk.net for the program and at http://manni.deviantart.com for the themes.

A lot of these skins are quite old but they may do the trick. Good luck!
