Themes installed per user should only be used for the corresponding
user. The behavior of gksu is correct.

From my experiments is not about personal settings.
If I copy the themes to /usr/share/themes it can use them.
The program seems to lie with user-installed themes.
Currently, the correct theme _is_ selected, it is just not always available in
/usr/share/themes or /root/.themes
My current
Wait, i was a bit unclear. It actually uses the theme selected by the user, IF
its available.
It has the correct setting. It doesn't try to use the theme from root's config
at all. It tries to use the theme of the user. But the theme has to be
available in /usr/share/themes or /root/themes.
The problem is that the path that GTK searches for themes is based on
the user running the program. So, if you have a theme in ~/.themes, GTK
will not be able to find it when running as a different user.
As Al says, this has nothing to do with gksu, gksudo, sudo, or su, it's
simply that GTK is
using sudo the gconf configuration read would not be the user one

Ah, I had assumed that the theme information was coming from gconf
settings. I guess it comes from the users ~/.gtkrc ?
I can't test at the moment, but do apps run via sudo use the
/root/.gtkrc ?

Tom, yes, it's going from gconf.

Sebastian probably meant that it's root's gconf.
So then gtk should learn x session owner (I guess the X
But putting a color chooser or making a beautiful theme for user and
root not is the solution.
When we access to admin utils with gksu, We must see the same theme
that the user, not the root theme!!
The problem not is make the user and root themes equals by default. If

A fix that would prevent lots of problem is to update the default theme
(Human) to support color-schemes. I believe the main reason people
install different themes is because they don't like the colors. (not
that the default colors are wrong, its just that different people like
different colors).
I think when you launch an application with gksu, it be save the actual
user session environment .
for example, when you execute su user you change the user but all
session environment don't change and when you execute su - user then
the session environment change to the user logged.
I think
The apps are already started by gksu.

I've also experience this bug and found it makes for a very un-
proffesional looking desktop for anyone that installs a theme through
gnome-theme-manager.
