I suppose it couldn't hurt, though I don't think that gtk-qt-engine will help you. It looks like whatever widget library that program is using is very simple, not gtk and not qt. Not even twm, the default for X. Are you sure that kwin is your window manager? And what version of KDE are you using? Does x-chat really look like the screenshot you posted? -- "It has been said that man is a rational animal.
