Just installed 11.10 and GNOME Tweak Tool but can't install gnome-shell-extensions-user-theme due to it not existing (or so apt-get install tells me). Because of that, there is no enabling user-theme-extensions in the advanced settings for the GNOME Tweak Tool. I can't find the repository for it anywhere. What am I doing wrong?

Geeky Way



You can install user-themes and other extensions from PPA, since extensions are not available in official repositories. Enter following commands to have themes working.



sudo add-apt-repository ppa:webupd8team/gnome3



sudo apt-get update



sudo apt-get install gnome-shell-extensions-user-theme



Now restart gnome-shell using Alt+F2 run dialog and entering r.



Enable extension form gnome-tweak-tool and you're done.



Preferred Alternate Way



This is by far the easiest way to install "user-themes" extension, as well as many other GNOME shell extensions.




  • Just open Firefox (you CAN NOT use any other browser, as of now).

  • And visit extensions.gnome.org

  • You can search for extension you're looking for, as well explore other great extensions.

  • Found the extension? Just click on the switch to install it.


  • Aah..... by the way for user-themes, you can get it here.




Note: GNOME Shell doesn't have Alt+F2 Run dialog enabled by default, so if that's the case, you can enable it via Keyboard Settings>Shortcuts>System.
