GuFw Not Using GTk2 Themes

[MM]

I'm running Slackware 13.1 and I installed ufw/gufw on my box.

Like any other application I would of figured GuFw would use the GTK2 themes I have installed but it's not.

I have a .gtkrc-2.0 file I use by hand to switch them and all my other apps switch to the themes, but GUFW won't.

Why Won't GUFW change to using a gtk2 theme? All it does it looks like a GTK1 app instead.

If all my other applications use the GTK2 themes I would think that GuFw would also but it's not.

Here's my .gtkrc-2.0 file:

[code]
#
# Select GTK+ Themes
#

gtk-theme-name="Equinox"
#gtk-theme-name="Laza"
#gtk-theme-name="Mire-v2_Grey"
#gtk-theme-name="Moka"
#gtk-theme-name="The-days-of-grays"

#
# Select GTK Fonts
#

#gtk-font-name="Bitstream Vera Sans 8"

#
# Select GTK Icons
#

#gtk-icon-theme-name="BRIT-ICONS"
gtk-icon-theme-name="SimplyGrey"

gtk-icon-sizes="gtk-menu=32,32:\
                gtk-button=32,32:\
                gtk-small-toolbar=32,32:\
                gtk-large-toolbar=32,32:\
                gtk-dnd=32,32:\
                gtk-dialog=32,32"
gtk-toolbar-style = GTK_TOOLBAR_ICONS
[/code]

There isn't anything complicated about installing this on another distro that should affect it not working with a GTK2 theme.

This is the slackbuild that made the package:

Thanks ;)
I see Gufw equal in KDE... but in GNOME the theme applies to Gufw...
I don't understand *-) This afternoon I will search anothers applications that use a file .glade ;)

I only use OpenBox 3.4.11.2 in Slackware 13.1 but all my applications change to the GTK2 theme I pick in my .gtkrc-2.0 file I change by hand, again here is the file:

#

#gtk-theme-name="Laza"
#gtk-theme-name="Mire-v2_Grey"

#

#

#gtk-font-name="Bitstream Vera Sans 8"

#

gtk-icon-sizes="gtk-menu=32,32:\

gtk-toolbar-style = GTK_TOOLBAR_ICONS

Here is a screenshot in OpenBox showing Geeqie and PCManFM using a GTK2 theme and icons, just to show you this is working on other applications except GuFw.

Hi SAR! :)
Could you try with this applications, please?
gthumb
liferea
imagewriter

please, send me a screenshot :)
Thanks!

Hi,

This bug seems to be caused by the fact that gufw runs as root. I bet you don't have your gtkrc file installed for the root user (on /root). Can you check if this is the cause, and try with other applications as root (graphical package managers, etc)?

[MM (mmme)]

Oh stupid me, SORRY Marcos, yes you are right I needed .gtkrc-2.0 in /root along with .themes and .icons.

So I made symlinks for all of them to my /root

ln -s /home/sar/.icons/ /root/.icons
ln -s /home/sar/.themes/ /root/.themes
ln -s /home/sar/.gtkrc-2.0 /root/.gtkrc-2.0

Now everything is working fine! :)

Sorry for mistake, my bad!

[costales (costales)]

@Emilio: Great job! :D Thanks very much!
@SAR: I understand now why in Kubuntu I can't see Gufw with the correct theme xD I learn something too :) Thanks Emilio!
@SAR: In other way, could you confirm me which version of ufw are you using in Slackware, please? Thanks! I do the questions for check a correct version in other distros between ufw & Gufw.

[MM (mmme)]

I'm using ufw_0.30pre1 from Lucid:

https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/lucid/+source/ufw/0.30pre1-0ubuntu2/+files/ufw_0.30pre1.orig.tar.gz

I wish now ufw team would make ufw work with ulogd. :)

THANKS

[costales (costales)]

@SAR The 0.30pre1 is the correct ufw version for Gufw 10.04 ;) Great!
