It can emulate the look and feel of the most beautiful menus of most modern desktops, and it can also custom menus, due to its powerful theme XML engine.

Download the source files from here. I tested the .deb package and does not work so you will need to compile it manually.

DEPENDENCIES :

python
python-xdg
python-cairo
python-gconf
python-xlib
deskbar-applet

INSTALL :
sudo make install

UNINSTALL :
sudo make uninstall

After the installation is complete, you may need to first restart your gnome panel:
sudo killall gnome-panel
Then right click your panel, select "Add to Panel" and then add GnoMenu. To change it's theme, right click the GnoMenu in your panel and select "Preferences".

GnoMenu comes with some themes pre-installed but you can also find a lot of themes on Gnome-Look.
