General :: Centos - Can't Use Gnome Themes
Sep 7, 2010I'm experiencing weird issues with Gnome themes. Basically, when I use gnome-theme-manager and I choose a theme it... does not work. Nothing happens, nothing changes. Everything is working for pre-installed themes.
I thought there might be something with the theme I tried to install so I downloaded and tried over 50 themes. None of them works correctly.
On my second PC, I got Debian installed and everything is working correctly there, every single theme works.
General :: Gnome Switches Themes By Itself - Ubuntu 10.04
Jan 13, 2011I have been running Ubuntu 10.04 Desktop in dual boot mode on my Toshiba Satellite A215 for several months now with no unusual problems. Lately, the gnome desktop has begun switching between my chosen theme (new wave) and another (clear looks). It does this at boot up and will remain that way for a few boots then switch back. Why is it doing this?

May 10, 2011I'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?

Ubuntu :: Gnome-shell No Themes (11.04)?
Apr 15, 2011the whole "Unity" thing didn't appeal to me that much, i installed gnome-shell.everything went well except there doesnt seem to be any themes to windows and stuff now, the gnome-shell looks great, but open up a program or file browser and its all grey and buttons and menus are blocks, no minimize or maximize buttons (not sure if thats a gnome thing now) but just a blocky X in the top right corner to close windows.

Jan 29, 2010After much playing around with themes downloaded from Gnome art and system colors I finally arrived to a Gnome theme I really like. This was done in my laptop. Of course I chose the option "Save as..." in the theme tab in order to save the theme.
Now I want to transfer this theme to my netbook. Am I supposed to find a single* file containing the theme's settings? Where would be said file?
* Or would I need to transfer the stuff I used from Gnome art as well?
Fedora :: Gnome Shell And Icon Themes
Jun 5, 2011Seems many icon themes still don't really play nice with gnome shell. They work totally fine for the most part, except the tray icons, they like to change them to their own monochrome icons which usually look bad (and most of the time not even all of them are changed). Is there a way to make any icon theme use the default gnome shell symbolic icons? Right now I am using elementary and its mostly fine, but it changed the battery icon to an ugly smaller version. I'd love to be able to change it to the default icon.

Dec 26, 2010I just installed Ubuntu Ultimate, and I found a theme I really liked that goes by the name "Azenis". However, I like the button arrangement on the default theme. Is there anyway to get the buttons on the left side of the screen, but still keeping the same look? I uploaded two screenshots just in case there is any confusion on the topic. (The blueish theme is Azenis, the default looking one is well, the default theme.)
View 5 Replies View RelatedCentOS 5 :: Gnome Window Decorators And Themes Don't Always Appear In The?
Jan 6, 2010I've tried to download and install themes using the theme manager but they don't always appear in the list even after a response of a successful install. Wondering what themes are allowed and how to tell. I think I am using gnome-window-decorator, as that is running. I am using compiz with nvidia successfully. Do certain themes require a different window decorator like metacity?
Is is safe to switch between gnome-window-decorator and metacity and how do I do that? I have metacity installed: metacity-2.16.0.12.el5_4.1_x86_64 I tried this one: MCity-ClearlooksWithACherryOnTop.tar.gzbut it doesn't show up in the theme panel. From what I've read gnome-window-decorator is the old name for gtk-window-decorator. Can any gtk themes be used with the version of gnome in centos 5.4?
OpenSUSE :: General Slow Down In Gnome Panel
Nov 13, 2010The last 1 weeks or 2, moving around in the gnome panel has slowed a lot. What was a 1 second delay switching from workspace 1 to workspace 2 now takes 30 seconds. Inside the applications like gnome terminal processing is fast, Thunderbird and Firefox do seem to have slowed but Kate, Kaffeine work fine. Dragging and dropping into workspaces takes 15-30seconds but by using the drop down box the speed is normal. This machine is running OpenSuse 11.2, Gnome Desktop 2.28.2, Amd 64 3000+, 2Gb RAM,

View 6 Replies View RelatedDebian Multimedia :: Icon Themes Added To Gnome Turned Up Missing
Mar 26, 2010On my laptop, I have stable installed. The original install was about two years ago, and I've just been keeping up with all of the stable updates. It is now an up to date Lenny. Over the months and years I have added several new icon themes to Gnome. I have noticed over time that several of the icon themes' icons have turned up missing. To see what I'm talking about take a look at the screen shots here: [URL]
Screenshot-2 is a closeup.
As you can see, icon themes Amaranth, Crux and Dropline Etiquette are missing their respective theme icons. The icon themes work, when selected, but the icon theme icon in the "Customize Theme" window never appears. Several of the other icon themes are the same. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the icon theme packs, but that doesn't fix it. I also have a desktop system of Debian stable with some of the same icon themes as on the laptop, but it does not have this problem. However, it is a much newer installation.

View 1 Replies View RelatedGeneral :: Gnome - Cannot Access Computer Or Trash Locations
Mar 4, 2010I have built gnome-2.28.1 from scratch (source) with gnome I compiled GDM and many other programs. GDM is starting fine, I can enter my user on the login prompt and login without problems. When I'm in the desktop I can't access the Computer or Trash locations clicking on the icon or even through Nautilus, the same error happening:
Error: Operation not supported.
I tried debugging by hand running the follow command: gvfs-ls trash://
Which tells me exactly Error: Operation not supported.
On my ubuntu system, lsof | grep gvfs returns a lot of gvfsd* daemons, like gvfsd-computer and gvfsd-trash. On my Scratch system lsof | grep gvfs doesn't return anything. My prefix used when building gnome was /opt/gnome and sysconfdir on /etc/gnome/2.28.1. lsof shows me that D-Bus is running, actualy gdm starts gnome with dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session.
And inside my /etc/dbus-1/session-local.conf I have:
Code:
<!DOCTYPE busconfig PUBLIC
"-//freedesktop//DTD D-BUS Bus Configuration 1.0//EN"
"[URL]"> <busconfig>
<!-- Search for .service files in /usr/local -->
<servicedir>/opt/gnome/share/dbus-1/services</servicedir>
</busconfig>
Well, I done many tweaks around and still can't display gvfs location, what I think is very odd is that lsof doesn't returns any gvfsd* daemon running.
Ubuntu :: Chane ONLY Icon Themes, Not Panel Themes?
Aug 6, 2010I 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.

Dec 22, 2010I was browsing /usr/share/icons/ and noted that there were several "extra" GNOME themes sitting there that I did not need, so I deleted them. Yes, I know it was a bad idea.I'm now left with a broken KDE desktop. Several icons, such as VLC and Rhythmbox, now appear as question marks. Synaptic doesn't even have the little boxes that you can click to install/remove packages (but you can still click in the area and manage packages).I reinstalled the extra themes, but no luck. I must have removed an icon set that I shouldn't have. I can't restore the files from my Trash because I used the CLI to remove them.

SUSE :: Very Slow Computer - HD Dying?
May 3, 2010If I start it up, and it's fast, it's like that through out. But if I start it up, and it's slow, it is slow like that for a whole time, and doesn't recover. When that happens, I saw the CPU almost 100% all the time. The hard drive light indicator would be on all time time. The top command doesn't indicate any process that use a lot of CPU. It just has a high "wa" percent. My remedy so far is to restart the machine, and hopes it's fast again. Sometimes it does sometimes, it doesn't. It always start up to the login screen very fast.
However, even before logging in, I can see it's slow if the hard drive light is on all the time, and not blinking). Even typing in the password would show a slow echo of the *. This is OpenSuse 11.2, 64 bit. The file system is ext4 (I wonder if it has something to do with this). Does anyone have any pointers on how to troubleshoot this? I may do a re-install. However, if the hard drive is failing, then I'll just back up and wait for the day it stops working.
Ubuntu Networking :: Internet Slow When 2nd Computer Is Off
Jun 15, 2011I have 2 computers connected to my linksys router via ethernet cables.
My main computer is running Ubuntu while the other is Xubuntu.
When both comps are on, the internet works fine, but when my second computer is off, my main computer has super slow internet. Sometimes it takes 2 minutes and I get "This webpage is not available", and then I refresh that and it finally loads.
Why does it work when both comps are on? What could cause this?
