------- Additional Comments From [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2003-03-03 15:46 ------- Mozilla doesn't support installing themes in user directory.. Just checked with 1.3-0.final.20030228.1mdk and without ~/.mozilla directory (ie no profile), no problem switching to Modern theme.. Reporter, could you test with this version ? ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. ------- Reminder: ------- assigned_to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] status: UNCONFIRMED creation_date: description: As mentioned in a different bug report, Mozilla 1.3b (Mandrake 9.1 RC1) themes can't be changed from the default classic. Also, downloading and installing a new theme fails. I believe this is because there are no "chrome" directories and related files created under the user profile in the .mozilla directory. Here is what I've found: Installing 9.1 RC1 as a clean install, but keeping the existing home directories, Mozilla themes works for existing users, but not newly created ones. Installing 9.1 RC1 as a clean install, without keeping existing home directories, Mozilla themes do not work for anyone, including root. Root gives the message from the cli: "grep: /usr/lib/mozilla-1.3b/chrome/locale.alias: no such file or direcotry" and after that themes can be changed for root (I'm assuming, though, that root is then using the above directory because the profile in root's directory still does not have a chrome directory. In either of the above scenarios, copying a chrome directory from my Mandrake 9.0 box to any users created on the 9.1 box fixes the problem. So, I'm pretty sure that the problem is with the missing chrome directory and the profile that is created. Joeb
