You'll run into (broken ??) themes like this too often. I tend to stick to the "popular" ones and it's safe that way. You find a "cool-looking" one at Freshmeat and it borks everything up. :-) What I've usually done is: 1) exit E and X-Windows. 2) edit ~/.enlightenment/...e_session-XXXXXX.snapshots.0 by changing the BORDER entry for my pagers and iconbox to DEFAULT. When you get a broken theme, I *think* it changes it to "FALLBACK". Save and exit. 3) If this broken theme has "lost" your root-window menu clicks, edit ~/.englightenment/user_theme.cfg and change the entry to BrushedMetal-Tigert. That theme is the default one and should always be available. If not, just change it to a theme you know works. > I have to say I'm still getting used to > Enlightement's approach to themes.

That didn't seem to work too well either. I'll get > the hang of this somehow... Apparently freshmeat is the culprit here as they don't offer *.etheme files, but *.tar.gz instead. If you rename the *.tar.gz to *.etheme and put it in ~/.enlightenment/themes BUT DO NOT UN-TAR it, you're saying it doesn't work for you ??
