Correct, only the GTK3 fallback theme works. Could we change the severity of this to "normal"? It prevents me from seeing which version of the software I am going to install, because the description next to the button is black. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

But I do strongly prefer the GTK version of the software manager, the design is much cleaner and more logical compared to its QT counterpart, and it has some nice features like the instant search and multiple select that the QT version lacks. So I'd appreciate any tips to make a quick hack. Could I change the CSS files of the GTK3 theme or something? Thanks in advance for your time. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

As you pointed out, gtk software management has some distinct advantages I quickly got used to, so I will have to wait until this issue is solved before upgrading my other systems. Another observation: The issue does not occur when logging into the 12.1 box from a system running 11.4. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

My wild guess is that Xfce does not set any GTK+3 theme (logically, as Xfce uses GTK+2) and so GTK+3 applications, including YaST, fall back to the default, extra ugly and unreadable theme. If my hypothesis is correct, this might be worked around by installing Gnome3 temporarily and use its theme selector to pick a more usable theme. With some luck, this will get stored and used even outside of Gnome. (At least I hope so.) -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.

This bug was not present within Gnome. But outside of Gnome this bug showed up. Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be just a GTK3 theme problem. I have since tweaked my XFCE theme, and now GTK3 apps like YaST follow the GTK3 theme. But the black background is still present. And it looks like nobody is interested in fixing this either... -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.novell.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug.
