Gnome 3.2 and Qt apps

realdarkman71 · Posted: Thu Mar 15, 2012 2:50 pm Post subject: Gnome 3.2 and Qt apps

Hi all,

I'm running Gentoo with Gnome 3.2 and all Qt apps are looking very ugly! I installed qt-gui with the gtkstyle use flag, the background and colors are ok, but all widgets (buttons, progress bars, combo boxes ...) not!

I don't know what the problem is! Can anybody help me please!?

Here is a screenshot:

Thx!
Chris

afaik you need to need to emerge cairo with -qt4 and install libgnome to take advantage of gtk theming on qt4.

Thanks for the hint, I emerged x11-libs/cairo with -qt4 use flag and gnome-base/libgnome is already on my system, but it does'nt work ... everything like before!

I was messing with this over the past week since I switched to Gnome 3 from KDE4.

qtconfig did the trick. I didn't even need to install systemsettings. Just "qtconfig" (which I didn't have to install, so I am assuming it comes with QT) and tada.

Hope that helps.

I noticed straight, under root the gtk style looks correct! How can it be?
