I have written some instructions here: > http://code.google.com/p/minipack/wiki/GettingStarted It might be worth dropping back to GTK 2.16.x, since the 2.18 series broke the ms-windows theme engine. I tend to drop a file in $install_dir/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc containing: gtk-theme-name="MS-Windows" That helps the apps look more native, but it turns out that this gives problems / doesn't work on the 2.18.x series. (2.18.3 onwards forcibly disable the theme engine in code, so just look non-themed. Up to 2.18.2, there is breakage with that theme). Best wishes, Peter C. -- There happens to be such a file already present in the directory you mention. Removing it doesn't solve the problem I encounter. Maybe this can be related to other apps on my machine having gtk dependencies installed. Maybe some of those apps installed a global resource link pointing in the wrong direction, maybe to a font file gschem doesn't recognise/know what to with. Anyway, this all may or may not be related to gschem, I dunno how to figure that one out (yet). Kind regards, Bert Timmerman. _______________________________________________ geda-user mailing list geda-user@moria.seul.org http://www.seul.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/geda-user
