This Numix clone is the dark version of OmNu-Ice. It features a dark and cool color scheme.
For this theme, I added a few styling adjustments to make it more modern.
- Download the latest file from the downloads directory
- Open a Terminal application
- Navigate to your Downloads folder in the terminal (usually titled Downloads). Type
cd Downloads
- Type
ls
and look foromnu-ice-dark-month-day-year.tar.gz
, where month, day and year represent when the file was last updated - Untar the file by typing
tar -zxvf omnu-ice-dark-MM-DD-YY.tar.gz
, substituting the current version's date numbers - type
cd
again to get to your home folder; typels -a
and see if there is a .themes directory - If one does not exist, create one:
mkdir .themes
cd Downloads
cp OmNu-Ice-dark ../.themes
- Follow steps 1-5 above
cd /usr/share/themes
sudo cp -r ~/Downloads/OmNu-Ice-dark /usr/share/themes
- Enter sudo password
ls
to check that the theme folder is present
OmNu-Ice-dark can be installed from the Arch User Repository via a package helper, such as Yay:
yay -S omnu-ice-dark
The font used in the homepage screenshots is Source Sans Pro for the main theme.
To change the font, you can use LXAppearance or set the GTK theme font by editing two files.
For GTK2, create the following file,
~/.gtkrc-2.0.mine and add:
gtk-font-name="Source Sans Pro 10"
In the file ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini, add:
gtk-font-name=Source Sans Pro 10
The GTK2 theme requires the Murrine theme engine. To install from the command line:
In the Ubuntu Software Center, search for Murrine. Then you can select Cairo-based gtk+-2.0 theme engine, which has the package name gtk-engines-murrine.
sudo pacman -S gtk-engines
