X and Fluxbox :: GTK Themes: where to put what for files ?
I use under my Win32 environment a GTK Theme for Gaim and Gimp. I thinks it is clearlooks...
now i want to use this theme in DSL 3.01 to. I have tried to put the gtkrc file from windows to DSL, but nothing happens :-(
is there a way to use such a theme for all gtk programms in dsl 3.01 and what for files must i set to what for a location ?
If it's a theme for gtk2 it won't work unless you install gtk2
Gtk1 themes should work by adding include "/path/to/theme" in .gtkrc
Some Gtk1 themes might not work, depending on how DSL's Gtk was built. I don't know what, if anything, was disabled.
GTK 2 is installd via the .dsl extension (Firefox 1.5.06 works great, direct download from mozilla.org)
It's still possible that the Gtk2 extension may not be a full-featured build. I couldn't tell for sure since i've never used it.
In any case, themes in Gtk2 are applied differently than they are in Gtk1. The .gtkrc file is for Gtk1. Since I use Gtk2 apps in my other systems only when there is no lighter alternative I've also never explored Gtk2 themes in those systems. However, I think the themes are stored in ~/.themes
