If you are familiar with the screen above. This post is for you! I couldn't stand staring at inconsistent icons and despite liking tux a lot I wanted to see ubuntu logo there. So I've made a script, converted Humanity icons into Macintosh icns format and made a mac package to install them. See this screen: So If you want this boot experience (including gray ubuntu silhouette after you select ubuntu similar to mac's apple) Project page: https://edge.launchpad.net/refit-humanity Download page: https://edge.launchpad.net/refit-humanity/+download Comments, Code, Bugs and Blueprints are welcome =) ps. the "screenshots" are actually edited files using themed graphics and same size because rEFIt is not build with screenshot support but it is very close to reality.

I support Crosswire related packages in Debian & Ubuntu as part of ~pkgcrosswire team and I do a few things syncs/merges/bug fixes here and there =) Although I'm now in Hull, UK studying Engineering I made a political decision to put Latvia on the Ubuntu Members map.

So please welcome to Ubuntu Planet - Latvia the Country that Sings. Here is an amazing video "Welcome to my Country" about Latvia. The soundtrack is by Brainstorm, probab
