change is good but they sure need a ui designer. seems improvement would be part of the goal here, but at least there's movement!
-
k...I give up... what is all that? (the gtk, or is that the app skin and not gtk?)
-
you can get both here http://gnomethemes.org/?p=57

firefox is not gtk, but rather gdk>gtk so I guess that's why it looks fine the only thing I can think of you doing (I don't have kde installed) is making a gtk theme with the colors you want and telling gain and any other apps you desire to use that theme. You can do that in gnome easily but I don't know if it works from kde....I think it should In your .gtk-2.0 file in your home dir (create it if it doesn't exist) put GTK2_RC_FILES=~/.themes/name_of_theme/gtk-2.0/gtkrc gaim to point to a theme in .themes for a theme in /usr/share/themes GTK2_RC_FILES=/usr/share/themes/name_of_theme/gtk-2.0/gtkrc gaim

arctic, the reason the earlier version is dark http://gnomethemes.org/pre/screenshots/Mirage2.jpg is because it uses the color specified in the gtkrc's metacity section style "metacity-frame" = "default" { bg[SELECTED] = "#444444" } class "MetaFrames" style "metacity-frame" class "GtkWindow" style "metacity-frame" Since Clearlooks DeepSky doesn't have that section it uses the bg[sELECTED] = "#??????" at the top of the gtkrc.

http://gnomethemes.org/?p=57 done it already have something else in mind? ATER is at gnome-look, if you're looking for an explaination for silly voting ;)
-
just tinkering with another way of doing a metacity to look good with the Mirage gtk engine http://gnomethemes.org/pre/screenshots/Mirage3-Sapphire.png
-
of course the first thing to do is run the browsers from a terminal and see if you get any output errors firefox > errors.txt
-
start X with gdm, kdm, and startx from init 3, log the results of ps aux | grep "[X]" every 10 minutes for 1 hour??? for all three logins after reboots. If the results suck with gdm, give them those results and ask them to explain themselves.
-
look at it this way.....if I didn't, you wouldn't have d3a :P ...someone has to do it :D
-
hmm...a lot of issues with doing that kind of upgrade? yuk! What happened? I did it for years. Urpmi? repos? pkg's? ...bummer!
-
nice!...but torture!...it's hot here :D looks like I need to make the shadows on the buttons more transparent. I can't go tooo far because it is intended for dark titlebars but.....I'll test.... what gtk is that so I can get that color for testing?
-
gdm has been known to do that....I had a mem problem long ago....ML9.1? and never found the problem, so I went cooker :P -the glass icons are svg but svg alone won't cause this -video card alone will not cause this -the gtk theme uses a bg pixmap and that is very slow ...I was just mentioning a few speed up tips I didn't use a dm for years, but started using gdm recently because it was the only way I could get other users to be able to login....would not work from init 3 :o

I updated the metacity to be more like the menubar Mirage download update
-
Yes, the idea that gnome is lighter than kde is a thing of the past. cairo won't use much memory, but it does slow the desktop down lsof -n /usr/lib/libcairo.s turn off nautilus makes gnome twice as fast. gconf-editor>apps>nautilus>preferences>untick show_desktop oh yeah...and to start nautilus as brower nautilus --no-desktop --browser spatial nautilus nautilus --no-desktop do not use an svg icon theme (tango for example) or a cairo based theme engine...examples...candido, rezlooks, murrine, mirage, clearlooks-devel (cvs) X+nvidia+gnome+svg+cairo=slow exactly why? no one particular reason, but many it seems
-
thx! I updated the metacity so that the inactive titlebar also has the gradient :D Mirage download update
-
Mirage download Mirage Metacity
-
MurrinaStyle download color schemes and tango mod icons
-
that could have all been avoided with --prefix=/usr ./configure --prefix=/usr unless of course you were trying to not overwrite something previously installed.
-
That's crazy, since you don't have a desktop without a panel.... run; gnome-panel from a terminal, if the command is not found then; urpmi gnome-panel
