|
|
I used to use gtk-chtheme to change the gtk theme, but now it doesnt work, and i tried modifying the .gtkrc-2.0 file directly, too, it still doesnt work.
here's the output when i run gtk-chtheme.
Code: | GLib-GObject-CRITICAL **: g_object_unref: assertion `G_IS_OBJECT (object)' failed |
is there anything broken? i've re-emerged gconf, pango, gtk+. _________________ My Blog | Latest Screenshot

posting your .gtkrc file could help. Here's mine:
Code: |
gtk-key-theme-name = "Emacs"
include "/home/user/.themes/WV/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
gtk-icon-theme-name = "Nuovo"
|
You have to include the theme's gtkrc in order to use it. _________________ Error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function. |

You don't?
Yes, the .gtkrc* files matter for gtk apps. Better to use the .gtkrc-2.0, but that's exactly what I'm doing, sorry, I maybe wasn't too clear about that. It's easy to just include the respective gtkrc for a theme. Just do a
Code: |
find /usr/share/themes -name gtkrc
|
To find out what themes you have and which of the respective files to include. _________________ Error compiling committee.c: too many arguments to function. |
