Hi,
I recently upgraded kde 4.1.4 to 4.2 and one of the side effects is
that kde4-gtk-qt-engine does’t work anymore.
All gtk apps like firefox looks terrible ! :\
Is there a way that gtk apps looks like kde theme for kde 4.2 ?
Cheers.
Kang

Hi farcusnz,
Thank you for your fast answer ! 
For sure, I will try kde4-kcm_gtk (is it replacing kde4-gtk-qt-engine
in 11.1 ?).
Hope this will solve my gtk apps display issues.
Bye.

kde4-kcm_gtk only helps to theme gtk apps under kde. the best thing to
do is to apply qtcurve. gtk-qt-engine does work for me after update(it
didn’t before) but imho it does it job poorly

Thanks for reply ! 
I tried kde4-kcm_gtk with QtCure but I’m not fully satisfied. The
scrollbar is not themed, and the theme doesn’t really comply with the
oxygen theme.
I also tried oxigen theme for firefox, but it is not really satisfying
(ie: the scrollbar remains not themed and blue). :’(
jurgis : Could you tell me from which repo comes from
yourkde4-gtk-qt-engine package ?
Cheers,
kang

The blue scrollbar is from QTcurve. There should be an option within
QTcurve to change this setting.

btw - using QTcurve is not a requirement of kcm-gtk. You should be able
to use whatever style / theme you prefer and it should stick in gtk
apps.
Opensuse switcehd to kcm-gtk from gtk-qt because kcm-gtk does a better
job.

Following your advices, I searched an oxygen theme for gtk.
I found this one, that I installed :
‘KDE4 Oxygen new port for GNOME GNOME-Look.org’
(http://tinyurl.com/6cw3x6)
And I must say that it renders pretty good !
Thx !

but you shouldn’t need a seperate theme for gtk apps. That’s the idea of
kcm-gtk. You should be able to use your kde theme in gtk apps without
problem.

Hi! I’m using OpenSUSE 11.1 with KDE 4.2, and I installed the 11.0
version of kde4-gtk-qt-engine. I didn’t use 1-click Install, but I
downloaded and installed the right package manually from the OpenSUSE
Build Service. It installed with no problems. It’s working well, and so
far I haven’t noticed anything wrong. But I wonder why they won’t make
the package officially for 11.1. It has everything that kcm_gtk has, and
even more…

kcm-gtk does not apply kde theme to gtk apps. kde4-gtk-qt-engine does
it. i downloaded mine from kde4 factory community repo. but if you use
default colour scheme then i guess downloading a seperate oxygen theme
for gtk is a better option. as i said - kde4-gtk-qt-engine does it’s job
very poorly
