Assigning to unity as it is the default window manager. The team will move it if they feel necessary.

I have the same bug installing nightly build (September 27, 2011). Cheese and Synaptic preferences dialog box, and others. It looks like this in my install, too.

Dear Kubuntu Developers

the first stable oxygen-gtk3 package is released. Is it possible to get it into Oneiric ? At least through the Backport's PPA ?

For everyone who wants oxygen-gtk3 in Kubuntu 11.10, it's now in the Backports PPA, thanks to Philip.

To get it to work you need to have the PPA and then:

1. sudo apt-get install gtk3-engines-oxygen
2. Go to /home/USER/.config/
3. Create a folder "gtk-3.0" (without "")
4. Cd created gtk-3.0 folder and create a file: "settings.ini" (without "")
5. Open the file and paste the 2 lines:

[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = oxygen-gtk

6. Open a gtk3 app, it should now look as an oxygen app.

Thanks, TheGhost, it works.

sh code:

sudo apt-get install gtk3-engines-oxygen
mkdir ~/.config/gtk-3.0
echo -e "[Settings]\ngtk-theme-name = oxygen-gtk" > ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
