If you use KDE or any other nice and nifty desktop you are used to good looking menus and widgets. But once you installed Mozilla Firefox things may look like a silly and ugly GTK application. So ... how to get out of this?
In Gentoo, things are easy. As root do:
- {{
#emerge -av gtk-engines-qtcurve gtk-chtheme``}} - Confirm the emerge with yes if it's alright with you :)
You now have the QtCurve theme for GTK and the theme switcher for GTK installed. Lets switch the GTK part of our desktop to the new theme:
- Open up a shell while inside your graphical desktop. Note: In the shell, don't be root or you will be changing the GTK theme for the root user. Be the user for who you want to change the theme. :) Most likely, yourself!
- {{$ gtk-chtheme}}
A window should appear where you can chose QTCurve as a theme.
- Select QtCurve and press OK.
Start up Firefox again and be happy with the nice outfit the buttons now have.
