First post on these boards! Yay!

Well, this is just a little and stupid graphic issue I'm having from some time, around a week ago I installed Ubuntu (as you may have guessed :P) but short time ago, after installing some packages and themes I guess, the sudo'ed windows appears with a different GTK theme, I experienced this with other distros, and I liked the fact that Ubuntu didn't ... is there something to be done to get back my GTK theme on sudo'ed windows? What exaclty did I do to have it this way? (so I won't do it again)

Thanks in advance. :grin:

My guess the reason this is happening is because the theme it uses when you sudo an window is that it uses the root theme and if thats all still default then it will make the windows the default theme. I could be wrong but I believe this is what is causing this.

p.s. Should this be in the Tips and Tricks forum? I think it should be moved :)

Yeah, it's because of that (same as other distros), the thing is that the first times I opened sudo'ed windows right before after the install, it appeared with my GTK theme of choice, INSTEAD of the default, but it stopped working that way don't know exactly when or why (that was another question I asked) ...

Sorry about posting in the "wrong" forum, but I readed Customization, and this is related to customization and, I believed, not so important to be disturbing on another forum ... My apologies ... :???:
