i dont know if this is the same thing, but to use the theme of the current user in your root system is done by :
sudo ln -s ~/.themes /root/.themes sudo ln -s ~/.icons /root/.icons sudo ln -s ~/.fonts /root/.fonts now i would like to know how i could add an new user, and use the theme that i use as normal user, without it defaulting to the human theme...?
