Good to hear that gnomecc fixed your issue. I've attached an RPM of QtCurve. This set works for both versions of GTK and for KDE 3.1.x ..it's the same package I'm using on two boxes. Remember that if you are going to change the gnome theme ..use gnomecc. The KDE version shows up in styles in the controil centre. Also remember to follow these directions about the GTK stuff. :)
Basically to Ben, but anyone else can chime in.Sorry about the delay but I have been trying to figure this out on my own. Told you that I had installed it. Same day James put up a new version. Installed that. Looks different, but somewhat like Keramik which I was using. Trouble is that is not effecting the Gnome based stuff. Mozilla, Gimp,GQViewer. You gave me the following directions. See below:
Directions:
For KDE: Use KControl, go to the Look'N'Feel section, enter the Style sub-section, and choose "QtCurve"
OK, did that. That is when I saw changes in KDE.
For GTK1: Copy /usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk/gtkrc ...to either /etc/gtk/gtkrc To enable this theme for *all* users ...or ~/.gtkrc To enbale for just yourself.
Alternatively, edit ~/.gtkrc so that it looks like: include "/usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk/gtkrc"
Now, I am not sure if I have GTK or GTK-2.0. They both show up in /etc, but, when I edited the fonts in Mozilla, I used gnomecc which is part of GTK1 I believe. I assume because I do not get a change in the Gnome applications, is because I have to do both parts of your directions, KDE & GTK. In /etc/gtk/ there is no plain gtkrc. There are about a hundred of them with a .** extension. Looks like they are languages.
For GTK2: Copy /usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk-2.0/gtkrc ...to either /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc To enable this theme for *all* users ...or ~/.gtkrc-2.0 To enbale for just yourself.
Alternatively, edit ~/.gtkrc-2.0 so that it looks like: include "/usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
Don't have a gtkrc in gtk-2.0 Only two files in there
Good luck and I hope 8.2 starts behaving for you soon. It really is quite nice. It's a shame your having so many issues with it.
Thanks. I hope so too. I upgraded from 8.0 to 8.1 using apt and after solvingh some problems ended up with a really nice system. Figured I would pay my money to SuSE and do a fresh install. Can't believe all of these niggling little annoyances. Thanks for the help. There are many more than I on this list that appreciate your contribtions. Bob S.
