ok ... check if gtk-qt-engine-trinity / gtk2-engines-gtk-qt-trinity
/ gtk3-tqt-engine-trinity are installed. If yes, uninstall. Check if
the checkmark in kcontrol "appereance/colors/apply colors to non-TDE
..." (free translation fom german TDE) is set. if yes, remove.
lxappereance: select clearlooks. Then try again.
hat geklappt!
so I didn't have the gtk engines code installed but unselecting 'apply
colors to non-TDE applications' worked.
(I think wicd crashed but reloading it looks ok.)
I haven't tried the lxappearance suggestion but no need for it now.
case closed thanks to you!
