| Now that GNOME 2.24 is released, the developers will begin working on GNOME

| are expected to land in GNOME 2.26 include support for configuring universal
| keyboard shortcuts, a new volume control utility that potentially leverages

10 Beautiful Themes for Ubuntu Intrepid Ibex
,----[ Quote ]
| The upcoming release of Ubuntu 8.10 (Intrepid Ibex) is highly anticipated not
| only for the system enhancements it will likely get, but also for its new
| default theme. The visual refresh is a long time coming, so I expect the
| Ubuntu artwork team is cooking something good for all of us.
|
| The October release date of Ubuntu 8.10 is fast approaching, yet until now,
| we don’t know exactly what the finished product will look like. I don’t want
| to make any guesses, instead, I decided to collect 10 beautiful existing GTK
| 2.x themes that I think can be further improved or altered and be used as the
| default desktop theme for Intrepid Ibex. Enjoy!
