I've recently installed Virtualbox, the Ubuntu Feisty package on Ubuntu Gutsy (amd64, tribe 5), since there's no newer release. Everything works fine, except for the part that the Qt looks ugly.
I tried to change the files, but the qtconfig-qt3 wouldn't save them, complaining:
QSettings::sync: filename is null/empty
I've then checked the ~/.qt directory in the home, and its owner was root:root, hence it doesn't allow the user to save their settings in ~/.qt/qtrc
A quick fix would be:
sudo apt-get install qtconfig-qt3
sudo chown -R `whoami`:`whoami` ~/.qt
qtconfig-qt3
I'm also providing a nice "theme", you just have to save it as ~/.qt/qtrc like so:
sudo apt-get install qtconfig-qt3
sudo chown -R `whoami`:`whoami` ~/.qt
gedit ~/.qt/qtrc
and then paste the following and do qtconfig-qt3 when you're done

--Changed by Saïvann--
/etc/qt3 folder is missing or empty with very low permissions ( drwxr----- 2 root root ).
Because the /etc/qt3/qtrc file doesn't exist or cannot be accessed because of the low permissions of the /etc/qt3 folder, all qt3 programs have HUGE fonts and become near to unusable.
This problem is caused by the absence of the "/etc" value in the debian/libqt3-mt.install file, so the package won't install his config files to /etc/qt3.
A quick workaround to fix that problem is to create the /etc/qt3 folder and create the file "qtrc" into that folder. qtrc file should contain this:
