Installing the Ubuntu Studio Theme

Ubuntu Studio is a multimedia creation focused distribution based on Ubuntu. It’s black and blue theme may appeal to you more the Ubuntu’s default brown. The Ubuntu Studio theme is easy to install in Ubuntu. Just run this command to install all the pieces:

Now open the Appearance Settings window (System->Preferences->Appearance) and select the UbuntuStudio theme in the Theme tab. Extra wallpapers are also included in the Background tab.

wow dude.. thanks a lot.. just what i been looking for… but just in case something goes wrong (hope it doesn’t :P), is there a method to uninstall it?

and is there any typical performance difference between ubuntu studio and ubuntu 8.10? I just upgraded to 8.10 yesterday. Will i be missing out on something? i am installing the softwares that feature in Studio though, one by one. So i was wondering, what would be the difference…

Thanks

no difference ath007. other than a direct ubuntustudio install uses the rt kernel (real-time)
