customize ubuntu desktop environment
 

Hello
I want to make new linux distribution by customizing ubuntu. i want to customize unity desktop environment of ubuntu. what i have to do?

Convince potential users why they should use your distribution instead of Ubuntu.

I just want to make my own distribution only for my own...

...and....
...leading to the VERY FIRST HIT in Google for "how to customize unity desktop in ubuntu":
http://askubuntu.com/questions/29553...onfigure-unity

...along with over 8 MILLION others:

Since you've been asking about compiling kernels and doing this since last year, have you not progressed any since then? Can you not find these customization resources on your own?

yes. you are right. i cannot progress anything in linux. i can't understand properly that what i have to do for particular thing. thats my fault..

Until you can perform BASIC operations (like customizing your desktop environment), and can perform basic research on your own, how do you think you'll ever be able to write your own Linux distro???

We can't understand things for you....you have to show some effort of your own, and start to learn. Until you do, there's nothing much anyone, anywhere, can do to assist you.

Ok.. thanks a lot..

Sorry if my earlier comment was a little harsh.

What I meant earlier was this:

"linux distribution" = from the verb "to distribute" meaning "to supply or pass out to others"

So if your project is only for you and are not sharing with others, you are not "making a distribution." You are "customizing the Unity desktop environment."

TB0ne gave you an excellent link how to customize Unity. Good luck! :)

ohh!!!... Don't worry about it... but you were told me the real fact thing about me.. so its not a problem. i will look my efforts as my own for done this project. i'll send you the link when its finished.. Thank you...

Forget ubuntu. Start here:

Not only will you learn how a linux system works, you'll also learn how to put one together. You can build whatever you want then.

Here you have the other concept - remaster ? if you want to do a custom distro with custom configs on the environment etc you dont need to do a distro you can use a remaster concept - In Ubuntu are this tuto - https://help.ubuntu.com/community/LiveCDCustomization .

The default configs of an user is placed on /etc/skel.

And is very simple make the step to config a custom ISO of a custom distro but this is not a distribution is only a remaster, can be used for specified tasks, for example support disticnt languages, with extra software , with custom aplications etc.

You also have - Ubuntu mini remix to build a system since a little system only with the minimum to make the process to build your ISO, Remastersys still work on 14.04 and you have forks of this software like Remaster GTK and in sourceforge you have some aps, but I never test in my case I always use remastersys.
