I compiled OO2 from source. Then I got fed up with how GTK stuff looks like crap under everything except XFCE and GNOME, so I emerged gtk-engines-qt (otherwise known as gtk-qt, or the thing that makes GTK apps look good in non-GTK environments).

So now I'm running KDE and Enlightenment-0.17, and OpenOffice 2's buttons don't show up. They show up when you mouseover them, but when your mouse is gone the button becomes blank, like the rest of the toolbar, just a grey bar sitting there taking up space. Clicking on them still works though.

Anybody know how to get over this?

Did you try putting export OOO_FORCE_DESKTOP="gnome" in your /etc/profile?
Then restart KDE or something, source /etc/profile, etc :)

Actually, no it doesn't help. source /etc/profile -ing it didn't work. I re-emerged gtk-engines-qt with that thing in my /etc/profile, didn't work either.
Even manually typing it out to the command line and running it from there didn't solve the problem.

But I got lots of these errors:
Code:
(soffice.bin:6756): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_bits_per_sample: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed

(soffice.bin:6756): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_width: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed

(soffice.bin:6756): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_height: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed

(soffice.bin:6756): GdkPixbuf-CRITICAL **: gdk_pixbuf_get_rowstride: assertion `pixbuf != NULL' failed

Better to do "oowriter2 --widgets-set qt" from the command line. You can use whichever widget set you want (and remember that it's "--widgets-set", not "--widget-set"). I use motif myself since OO doesn't do a good job of replicating my KDE theme.

If you like the look of gtk applications under Gnome, try running /usr/libexec/gnome-settings-daemon in other environments.

perhaps re-emerge gdk-pixbuf or another version?
