Hello Desktoppers! The Ayatana team has been working on some GTK enhancements for Lucid. Adding support for Client Side window decorations and enabling RGBA color maps by default. We have uploaded a patched version of gtk which adds these features to the ~ubuntu-desktop team PPA (along with a needed fix for nautilus to go along with it).
The new decorations feature requires explicit support from a theme before it becomes active (it defaults to being disabled). However, RGBA support is enabled by default and there is a chance for some fallout from this being added. Please help test before this gets uploaded to Lucid, there is currently one known issue. Redraw problems, most noticeably in nautilus. In a nautilus browse window, scrolling will leave some artifacts briefly. This behavior has also been seen in gnome-terminal, xchat-gnome, and evolution. You can find the packages in the ~ubuntu-desktop team PPA https://launchpad.net/~ubuntu-desktop/+archive/ppa To add the PPA and upgrade: sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ubuntu-desktop/ppa sudo apt-get update sudo apt-get upgrade This upgrade will include libgtk2.0-0 and some other gtk packages as well as nautilus from this PPA. Please look for regressions in current applications and report by commenting on https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gtk+2.0/+bug/491521 Thanks for testing! --Ken -- ubuntu-desktop mailing list ubuntu-desktop@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-desktop
