Debian :: Installing KDM Themes - Wallpaper ?
Mar 18, 2011
I am using Debian 6.0 Sid (aptosid) with KDE 4.5.x and would like to install the official Debian Squeeze KDM theme, wallpaper etc, into my system.
I think the theme is called Orbit Fun? I came to this forum instead of aptosid's forum to learn how to install KDM themes the Debian way using a terminal and not the KDE-Look download way. KDE-Look does not have the official Squeeze theme at this time, and I generally do not like the aptosid artwork, but I really like sid.

I installed the Cairo dock and wanted to get rid of the taskbar on the left side. Found out that getting rid of Mutter would do that. Not satisfied, so long story short, reinstalled Mutter. Now I only get a white screen. No wallpaper, colors, themes, nothing. As I shut Ubuntu off I will get a flash of my wallpaper and then it's gone. 2 questions really: How do I get things back the way they were? Can I keep the dock but lose the standard sidebar?

I am trying to install the somewhat quite popular theme QTCurve, so I can use it as a base theme for the theme black pearl, which I am really into. However, being usually highly skilled in computer knowledge, I can find the proper way/area to place a new theme, I just know it might be under a folder in the root sector containing themes for kde and will be there upon restart.

I don't mean that it prevents me from using it, on the contrary, it changes all of the text boxes to the same color, making it hard if it's not a conflicting color. I want to install dark themes such as Cobra and Aero-ion but they conflict with Firefox, and I don't want to use Chromium. Do I have to stick with basic and default themes if I want to customize or switch to Google Chromium? Can someone point out a website that, well, has ones compatible with Firefox 4?

I would like to install a new icon theme without effecting my currently selected panel theme, as i think the Ambience panel theme looks really nice and unified but im not too keen on the Ubuntu-Mono icons.Is this easily possible, without going into my icon folders and replacing all the instances of one style for another?Are there any applications for gnome icon theming like OS X's Candybar?Im sure others must desire to change only the icons and perhaps it is really easy and this is why i couldnt dig anythin up on google, that or im a useless googler.

I installed Debian Squeeze with Gnome today. I'm unable to change from the default icon theme. I can change themes, but the icon theme remains default.Things I've tried:
- I've made a new user account.
- .gtkrc-2.0 in my home is auto-generated, .gtkrc.mine does not exist.
# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT include "/usr/share/themes/Darklooks/gtk-2.0/gtkrc" include "/home/haunted/.gtkrc.mine"
# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT
- I've tried installing a theme into my /home/.themes.
- I've reinstalled gnome-settings-daemon.
- Tried changing themes then doing a full reboot.
- Cursed it periodically.

Since of late "Appearance preference" behaves awkwardly . Normaly It is supposed to show themes in /usr/share/themes right? but now it shows themes only in ~/.themes folder. I don't know what affected the change. how do I configure it as to show themes in /usr/share/themes/,?
Also whatever theme I use , Controls would stay same(Classic controls). They wouldn't be update to those of the Theme used.

When I google screenshots of Linux I often see that people have a clock directly on their desktop. How is this done?
I'm running Xfce on a Wheezy vm, but without xfce4-panel, so having a clock/date right on the wallpaper/desktop would be great..I don't want a clock in a window.

Code: Select all# plymouth-set-default-theme --list
details
joy
lines
spacefun
text
tribar
These are the plymouth themes available.
I've tried to preview every themes (using this script [URL[....), but they're all the same, just three dots except for "details" and "tribar". I've tried to use one of those three dots theme too and yes the bootsplash is three dots.
I've opened /usr/share/plymouth/themes/spacefun/ and saw that it shouldn't be like that. It should be something with blue background and Debian logo.
I've used this Wiki page as reference: [URL] .... I'm using Jessie.

I installed (debian-jessie-DI-rc3-amd64-DVD [testing]) on both my laptop and desktop. After I installed plymouth and some themes, on the laptop I entered into the terminal to steup and activate the theme like so:
Code: Select all<USER>@<USER>-Aspire-5336:~$ su -
Password:
root@<USER>-Aspire-5336:~# /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme --list
aurora-borealis
debian-logo
debian-sunrise-blue
debian-sunrise-mono
debian-vizta
[CODE] ....
It wouldn't load the plymouth theme. Now I installed (debian-jessie-8.0.0-amd64-DVD [stable]) only on the laptop so far, and used the same process as with (debian-jessie-DI-rc3-amd64-DVD [testing]) for installing plymouth and when it got to where it said it was missing firmware I fallowed the:
Code: Select allroot@<USER>-Aspire-5336:~# apt-get install firmware-linux-nonfree
It loaded the firmware just fine. But after I...
Code: Select allupdate-initramfs -u
...and then rebooted the system, the plymouth theme didn't load just like the desktop when I installed (debian-jessie-DI-rc3-amd64-DVD [testing]) on it. I looked at the /etc/plymouth/plymouthd.conf and it reads:
Code: Select all# Administrator customizations go in this file
#[Daemon]
#Theme=text
#ShowDelay=0
[Daemon]
Theme=debian-sunrise-blue

I'm in Debian testing and I had Gtk+-3 from the apt-get. Now because I wanted to install Xnoise in Debian from source, I needed gtk+-2. So I installed gtk+-2 from the source. And after that Xnoise was installed and worked great. I've noticed that Xnoise theme was standard(gray). Note: I installed both of them to /usr/local(default/no prefix). But when I rebooted my computer, all Gnome themes was also gray. BTW: After reset I can't hear any sound in Xnoise, but this isn't the subject here. Therefor, I went to System->Preferences->Appearance and It tells me the following error in a yellow box(translated): "The theme won't seen as excepted because GTK+ Adwaita suit isn't installed."
I had the "clean theme" which is the default Gnome theme in Debian. Now all the themes have gone.... I can see only "Custom" which is ugly gray. How can I restore it?

Where can I find the wallpaper that is similar to the image in the Debian home page. Not the one in the smaller windows (in the image), but the part of the image which has "The universal operating system" written.

Env: Lenny LXDE
[Question]
By (first step) doing: pcmanfm --set-wallpaper /point-to-new-wallpaper, it change the configuration to the new wallpaper, then, my question is: What is the most correct way to "refresh the desktop screen" (by command line) so that the new wallpaper is then displayed.
And by (second step) doing: lxsession-logout, and choosing 'Logout', the new wallpaper is displayed after the new login. No problem here. Is there a (most correct) way to completely change the picture and activate it by command line (without user intervention)?

how to use my downloaded themes, I used a default Xfce theme. The only issue I saw with that was that the Synamptic window did not take the selected theme, it was default. When I selected my downloaded them in the Appearance menu, Synamptic started using the selected theme, but everythign else (99% of windows) went back to the default light grey color. Although my dark theme is selected, only Synaptic (that I know of) is using it.

I am new to linux... and I have Installed Debian as my default OS replacing Ubuntu.
I have Installed Plymouth:
# apt-get install plymouth
# /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme --list
# /usr/sbin/plymouth-set-default-theme THEME
# update-initramfs -u
Plymouth does not work. What went wrong? or what more should I do to make it work.Also how do I install themes to plymouth, which are not there in the theme package? I have come across this theme I really like but it is in tar.gz and I am looking for some guidance from the forum to run tar.gz packages.

I'm running Xfce 4.6.1 and xfdesktop 4.6.1.1 (or so aptitude said). When I use 'None' image option - just colour - I get the colour I ask for but if I change that to either 'Single image' or 'Image list' then both the image and the background colour are made greyscale.
I have tried looking through all the options I could find to do with Xfce and searching Google but I don't know how to phrase it as my searches tend to bring up black and white wallpapers.
Running X as a different user on the same computer does not cause the same problem which makes me think it might be cause by a user setting though I spent a long time with a black and white wallpaper and do not know when the issue first arose.

I have been an Ubuntu user for the past two years and have recently made the switch to Debian, so while not new to GNU/Linux or Debian-like distributions I am still learning on many fronts. Installing squeeze directly caused issues with my Wi-Fi for some reason, so I installed lenny and performed aptitude safe-upgrade (full-upgrade kept breaking the system), and took care of stray packages manually to get a working squeeze system. My desktop environment of choice is Xfce, using XDM.
Ever since the upgrade, both the login prompt and the actual desktop have had a black background with no icons or right-click menu. I am guessing that the issue is a daemon that should be running but isn't, although I have no idea where to begin troubleshooting the issue, which is why I came here. I've uploaded at of my desktop here Right-clicking in the black space doesn't do anything, and changing my wallpaper settings is ineffective.It's not a huge problem for me, as everything else in the system appears to work, but I would like to figure out what the problem is, fix it, and maybe learn something about Debian in the process.
