It looks like soon from the looks of the PPA page at https://edge.launchpad.net/~netbook-remix-team/+archive as all but two of the packages (desktop-switcher and metacity) have an Intrepid version at this point.

please, i tried to install the remix in my aspire one with ubunntu 8.10 and got this message:

Os pacotes a seguir têm dependências desencontradas:
  go-home-applet: Depende: libgnome-desktop-2 (>= 1:2.22) mas não é instalável
  human-netbook-theme: Depende: gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks mas não será instalado
  ume-launcher: Depende: libclutter-0.6-0 mas não é instalável
                Depende: libgnome-desktop-2 (>= 1:2.22) mas não é instalável
E: Pacotes quebrados

well, trying to translate...
packages with matchless dependecies...
go-home-applet depends on libgnome-desktop-2 (>= 1:2.22) but it cannot be installed
 human-netbook-theme depends on gtk2-engines-ubuntulooks but it won't be installed
ume-launcher: Depends on libclutter-0.6-0 but it cannot be installed

well, i have libgnome-desktop-2-7 .. but it seems to be useless...
i am using ubuntu 8.10 on a aspire one
thanks

Samuel are you using the Interpid source?
That is deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/netbook-remix-team/ubuntu intrepid main in Software sources?
Because for 8.10 you need netbook-launcher instead of ume-launcher.
That should solve the depencies.

At the moment I'm running the Interpid packages for Netbook Remix on 8.10 on a MSI Wind and it works like a charm.

Can you help with this problem?
