Public bug reported: Binary package hint: gnome
When you add a new theme with gnome-appearance-properties, it's not taken into account by the apps you run as root. It would be better if the root user had access to every users's themes by default. To fix it I had to make a symlink: sudo ln -s ~/.themes /root sudo ln -s ~/.icons /root ** Affects: meta-gnome2 (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: gnome-appearance-properties -- gnome-appearance-properties new themes not displaying on sudo apps https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/500977 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
