To apply the changes, we type: sudo update-grub We only need to rename 30_os-prober_proxy.Īfter that, we close Nemo, but not the terminal window. The file 10_linux is the current default in the GRUB boot order. On this home folder, we press ctrl+L and type /etc/grub.d/ Running the file manager as root on Linux can be extremely dangerous nothing will stop us from deleting an essential system file or folder by mistake. The difference is that we opened the home folder as root. However, this manual way has a small but important difference between the two distributions.įirst, we open a terminal with ctrl+alt+T, and we type: sudo nemo The Grub Customizer process was identical for Linux Mint and Ubuntu. So, we need to be extra careful with our every move. In fact, it is easier than installing GRUB customizer - but with a higher chance of breaking something in our system. If for whatever reason we can't or don't want to install GRUB customizer, we can change the GRUB boot order manually. However, the Paper theme is still in a beta stage and isn’t exactly ready for prime time as its still lacking a rather long list of icons in its set.On the next reboot, Windows is now the default operating system in the GRUB boot order. Paper is a GTK 2/3 based theme that works best with desktop environments using the Gnome shell and it’s about the closest to an Android look and feel you can have on you Linux desktop – this project especially follows Google’s guidelines except for a few modifications here and there for better scaling of the icons and some other elements.

While there are more than a few themes and icons that will effectively function with your Linux system, I’ve scoured the web to make this compilation particularly because I’ve grown a liking for all things flat in relation to the looks and feel of any operating system.Īlso given that it’s an ongoing trend, (from Microsoft’s Window’s 10, to the Android operating system and even Apple’s iOS) in the software industry as a whole, you might as well bring the flat feel to your Ubuntu, Arch, Fedora, or whatever distribution you may be rocking. What is a Linux desktop if it ain’t filled with eye candy? Here we have a list of Material inspired/flat-feeling Themes and Icons to beautify the GUI of your system so you may customize it to your hearts’ content.
