Right click on your Panel, then choose "add to panel", then select "Main Menu" with the computer picture next to it. That should be it :)

IMHO it's not really that slick yet. Could be better.

Hi rmh3093,

on your screenshot http://www.rit.edu/~rmh3093/gnome-main-menu_screenshot.jpg you have aiglx or something like that running, right? What is the window-decorator you're using? The blue-transparent window-borders are very nice, where can I get them?

Thank you in advance,

Andy

All you have to do is go into emerald, click on the"Repositories" tab, then click the "Fetch non GPL'd Themes" button.

So gnome will officially replace the current one with this one? In 2.18?

Hi rmh3093,

I'm on compiz now, but I'll switch to beryl as it seems to have more features and a better GUI to configure it.
Can you tell me the name of the emerald-theme you're using in the screenshot?

Thank you!

actually i think it might have been a GPL'd theme.... i think it was "VRunner-Quicksilver"

that ubuntu-control-center aka gcontrol fits nice to it ;)

If someone wants.. et voila a stand-alone ebuild based off some other non-working I found somewhere around the forums:
http://gimpel.ath.cx/~tom/files/portage-overlay/gimpel/gnome-extra/gcontrol/

would be nice if the "more applications" menu in slab/gnome-main-menu would had a similar layout, currently i find it very ugly.
