GTK2 + GTK3 Configuration under KDE

January 21, 2012 By starbuck 15 Comments

Thanks to Aleix Pol, Manuel Tortosa and José Antonio Sánchez, there is now a tool for easy configuration of GTK2 and GTK3 look under KDE:

There are deb-packages for non-netrunner-distributions (which work for many deb-based KDE-distros like Kubuntu, MintKDE, etc.):

https://launchpad.net/~cyberspace/+archive/cyber-stuff/+packages

Just click on the link named “kde-gtk-config(_version)” of your version (precise, quantal, raring), then choose your architecture Package file (amd64, i386).

Source Code: https://projects.kde.org/projects/playground/base/kde-gtk-config

After installation, you will find the configuration module under “System Settings – Application Appearance – Gtk Configuration”.

For feedback please leave a comment or join our forums discussion.

Doesn’t work!

The GTK configuration appears item appears in the System Settings. But when you click it, the whole System Settings Hangs – and uses 100% CPU!

KDE Platform Version 4.7.4 (4.7.4) on Ubuntu 11.10

Hello eboneezer,

are you using Kubuntu or Ubuntu+KDE?

Installed basic Ubuntu then:-
sudo apt-get install kubuntu-desktop

Maybe you can try by attaching gdb and getting a backtrace?

If you need help, send me an e-mail at aleixpol@kde.org.

Thanks!!

Your links to the packages return 404 errors, which is a shame because I recently rebuilt my laptop with LMDE + KDE and I’d love to be able to install kde-gtk-config.

It hung like what you described in netrunner 4.2 (upgrade from 4.1) after several system updates, and I changed to use gtk-chtheme instead.

Today I upgrade to netrunner 12.12.1, and its
