Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome-control-center
This is on Ubuntu 8.10 with version 1:2.24.0.1-0ubuntu7.1 of gnome- control-center. I use my laptop (HP EliteBook 6930p) with a second monitor at work (as one large desktop via ATI Catalyst Control Center). When I take the laptop home, I switch to the lower one-display resolution (from 2800x900 to 1400x900) with gnome-display-properties. This changes my desktop theme from Ubuntu's default brown-ish "Human" to a blue one ("Clearlooks", I think). Usually, this change cannot be reverted via gnome-appearance-properties. When I try, an error message informs me that the gnome-settings-daemon couldn't be started, so changes won't take effect. In the appearance window, "Human" is still the selected theme. If I start the daemon by hand, it works again. Strangely, this only happens when I decrease the screen resolution, not when I increase it again. ** Affects: gnome-control-center (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- gnome-display-properties changes desktop theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/324115 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
