How can I make ubuntu14 desktop like win 7
0
I have Ubuntu 14 running in vmware but I want to make the desktop look like Windows 7. I tried
sudo apt-get install xubuntu-desktop
but when logged out I can't see xfce session.
I also tried
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:upubuntu-com/gtk3
sudo apt-get update
sudo apt-get install win2-7
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences theme 'Win2-7-theme'
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences button-layout 'menu:minimize,maximize,close'
to no avail.
