I've never used xubuntu, but I love Lubuntu.. Have you tried Lubuntu yet? It is small in memory footprint size than xubuntu as well..
Here is a guide..

The problem is that update-manager is using GTK3, which has a new, incompatible theme system. At the very least, you should be able to use Adwaita (GNOME 3's theme) for those apps by copying Adwaita's gtk-3.0 folder into your theme.
Ubuntu's Ambiance and Radiance are two of the few themes I know of with GTK2 and GTK3 versions.
For anyone wondering, Adwaita is in gnome-themes-standard, and Ambiance and Radiance are in light-themes (both in the repo).
