            Hi,

            I use gtk-qt-engine-trinity on a Debian Squeeze to
            have gtk-based
            apps look like qt3 ones.  But I encounter  "repaint"
            issues using
            some gtk based apps but not all of them.  For example,
            iceweasel
            (firefox), openoffice.org <http://openoffice.org> have
            severe bugs that make menu entries
            (oo.org <http://oo.org>) or tabs to disappear (all
            painted in gray).

            More precisely: correct graphics appears as
            appropriate but
            disappears when the mouse leaves the graphical pane of
            tabs, menu
            items, etc.  I use iceweasel 7.0.1 and openoffice.org
            <http://openoffice.org> 3.2.1.

            Is there any fix to this applicable for me?

        <snip>
        I had the same problem on Lenny using 3.5.12.  I believe I
        opened a bug
        report on it - John


    No such problems here with gtk-qt-engine-trinity on 3
    different machines.. Graphics driver issue?


Oh yes, I forgot to consider this.  I fixed some issues in the past by
tweaking oo.org <http://oo.org> rendering options, but I'm not
sure this is possible
with iceweasel (a quick look at about:config gave me nothing relevant
to do so).

I'll try it for oo.org <http://oo.org>.

Thanks,
Nicolas

Hey guys,

submitting bug reports and attaching steps to reproduce this would be great. I've worked on the gtk engine a bit, but it's often hard to reproduce the same bug twice.

I have noticed instability with a few apps as well: nm-applet, vuze, geany, firefox

Hello, I'm now trying to use gtk-qt-engine on my Mageia 2 computer. It makes my usual GTK2 applications (Firefox, Thunderbird, Geany ... almost the same as you said earlier) slow and very CPU-eating ! Sometimes they freeze at 99% CPU, I have to kill them (or wait several minutes to come back, but to freeze again soon). I have to uninstall gtk-qt-engine entirely to keep my TDE desktop usable with GTK applications.

Maybe we should ask the opposite question: are there people who have no trouble using gtk-qt-engine ?
