[SOLVED] strange prob with kde4 apps in xfce4 / oxygen-gtk

Postby hman » Apr 2nd, '13, 10:08

Hi all,
i using Mageia 2 with xfce4 and oxygen-gtk. Under kde4 (systemsettings) i used oxygen theme, but when i try to use kwrite, kate or other kde4 apps, i have some appearance problem (see attached image) background of textbox are gray and not white

Qt applications work fine (the only problem is set icon theme). I have this problem only on one pc, i have notebook without problem but same environment.

Same Kde4 applications in Kde4 work fine

Same Kde4 applications in Lxde have same problems

Could you help me ?

thanks
Armando

My first question would be does it render ok with another theme. Have you tried another? (eg plain oxygen, qtcurve etc?)

I remember problems in the past with oxygen-gtk rendering, back in the Mandriva days actually. IIRC there was a problem with compositing (may have been related to video driver settings too, eg hardware acceleration) Are you running an older compositor like compiz? What display manager are you using?
