HowTo: More of Fedora Themes Package

As a Fedora user since Fedora Core 1, I have to admit that the default X windows system with Fedora is not that quite sweetened and color-coded. Yes, it has striked a few but more candy-cooking is needed to bling it further. But hey, themes for X themes including icon and application themes are available from Fedora repos.

Here are a few themes available from Fedora repos. These includes X themes, icons themes, and application themes that might sweeten more of your Fedora desktop sweetenings and flavors.

Take note that some of them could take some time specially if you have a very slow internet connection. If you really are interested to get your hands wet with these themes, read on. Remember what they say, install at your own risk.

Before continuing, remember the Fedora yum basics.

a. To install a rpm package,
# yum install packagename

b. To get more information of the rpm package,
# yum info packagename


Now, moving forward with Fedora themes for X, application and icons.
