It's the old (from over a year ago) Marcintesh_OS-L-GTK-Color_Pack

I honestly do not know if the theme is the prob. I have never seen a pixmap theme crash anything or things so much and not give output as to what the problem is.
I have mandriva 2005 le and ubuntu hoary. Both have been giving me trouble before I even started to repolish this theme and both are old installs but they were not locking up. Ubuntu hoary from warty beta (updated via apt) and mandriva 2005 le from ML-9.1 (updated via urpmi, mostly cooker). My old box has ubuntu hoary and no problem with these themes but I'd like confirmation that they are fine.
If you'd like to help I'd appreciated it, as would others that want these themes.
I'm not talking about crashing just an app, or even just gnome, I mean hard sys locks where you have to presss the reset button. I sit here now on mandriva 2005 le in firefox with an updated for combobox BBX-Mercury-L from which marcintesh was made from without a problem. The updated combo boxes and code on both are the same. Also updated the spin buttons in marcintesh blue and green.
Once running gimp from a terminal said that there was an unexpected identifier 'UR' on line 544 of the gtkrc in marcintesh blue. This is the line
go figureCode:stretch = TRUE
so I removed it and added it again and haven't got the error again, but still have sys locks.
Apps that are run before the crashes and locks
gnome-theme-manager
firefox (with tabs open)
nautilus
sometimes epiphany
once firefox locks and is killed, no other browser will start. The most output I've gotten from this is Segmentation fault from epiphany and firefox. It's usually then that the sys locks but if you Ctrl+Alt+Delete when firefox freezes you can 'usually' reboot fine.
Also, before I started with this I updated clearlooks to 0.6. This was the first time I had the crashed and locks with the browsers. But even after reverting to clearlooks0.5 and then messing with marcintesh weird things continue, now on 2 distros, and the new clearlooks was never on mandriva. I'm sure they are not directly related but I find it interesting that clearlooks 0.6.1 was thene release with fixes for the combobox. hmmmm....
Doubt I'll get any takers, but I just thought I'd ask. What started as a simple update to proper comboboxes and spinbuttons has turned into a 2 day frustration.
So now, I'll try and just plain remove combobox and optionmenu and maybe reinstall a linux. Yuk.
thx all!
