I've even tried running it as root. I have noticed that if I make a change to the Window Background colour, and then close qtconfig, it has reverted back next time I open it. It reverts to the colour of the system theme that I've set, so I think that must override the setting in qtconfig. But somehow it doesn't apply it to Scribus. Oh well! I guess a little non-conformity is a good thing. -- Stewart H. Posting via Gmane
