I simply cannot install Linux themes. I've tried using Redhat 8.0, Mandrake 9.0, KDE and Gnome - themes just don't work for me.
For instance, I'm running RH 8.0, Gnome desktop - I download a tar.gz theme file, go to preferences, themes, click install new theme, point to the tar.gz theme file - nothing happens. Files are installed in the .theme directory, but the them does not show up in the list of installed themes.

Mount your redhat partition somewhere like /mnt and make sure any other mount points like /usr and /boot get mounted under /mnt/usr and /mnt/boot as well. I don't know anything about grub, but if it was lilo you would just do: chroot /mnt lilo If you want to read the man for Grub to see how to install it into the MBR, just do: chroot /mnt man grub Then: chroot /mnt <grub command> - Ryan Robert Adkins wrote: > Stefan, > > If you followed the recommended, "Create a boot disk" during the Red Hat > install.

I am not sure if the issue it that they get added to or if it is due to logrotate. What do you folks that run tripwire do to elliminate these false positives?
