The seconds screenshot it's not a theme it looks like Awesome WM. – Uri Herrera Feb 06 '12 at 23:08

@UriHerrera Not a dupe, already on GNOME Classic. Also, what WM does Ubuntu 11.10 normally have? – tekknolagi Feb 06 '12 at 23:16

@UriHerrera installed AwesomeWM, not quite what I expected. See edit. – tekknolagi Feb 06 '12 at 23:28

Change the distributor logo, Those are tiled terminal windows, doing "stuff", Ubuntu uses Metacity. – Uri Herrera Feb 06 '12 at 23:36

@UriHerrera and make the other changes to mirror that image? – tekknolagi Feb 06 '12 at 23:38

The second image as you may not know is Gnome 2, while you can't make it look exactly like that anymore, the other question i put in the comments leaves you with the closest possible, also in the image the user is using the global menu (appmenu now) so add the proper extension, there's too a gnome shell extension to add the logo there, and to have that all terminal look, stop using GUI software, and use the terminal for everything. – Uri Herrera Feb 07 '12 at 00:29

The Gnome-Panel used in Oneiric uses a slightly different key-combination to add/delete and move options:
Press Win+Alt and right-click the top menu bar - N.B. Win is the Windows Symbol key
If you are using Gnome Classic (No Effects) i.e. gnome fallback mode then to add to the panel use Alt and right-click)
Make sure you right-click over the menu itself - you will have two options: Move and Delete. Delete the menu.
Repeat the key-mouse combination. This time:
Choose the Add to Panel
Scroll down the list - you will see two Menu options
- Custom Main Menu
- Main Menu
Choose one of these options for the style of menu you want.
