[SOLVED] KDE Oxygen style

Hello,

Today I did an upgrade with pacman -Syu and while everything seemed to go okay now Oxygen is missing from the KDE Style menu.
Other styles like CDE, Cleanlooks, Phase etc. are still there. I think only Oxygen is missing.

I searched to find a solution but I only found this: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/KD … ow_manager and it didn't work.

I'm running KDE 4.8 from about 2 days after it was in the repos and this problem occured today.

Anyone knows what the problem might be?

Re: [SOLVED] KDE Oxygen style

Hello,
i had the same issue and i found this simple solution:
It seems that KDE ignores the file '/usr/lib/kde4/plugins/styles/oxygen.so'
By simply copying this file as oxygen2.so it seems to work!
The command i launched is:
'sudo cp /usr/lib/kde4/plugins/styles/oxygen.so /usr/lib/kde4/plugins/styles/oxygen2.so'
and after this i reopened the System Setting menu and Oxygen was present in KDE Style menu!

I am trying to find out the proper solution, but meanwhile this works for me!
I hope this procedure could help you!

Re: [SOLVED] KDE Oxygen style

Same problem here. Renaming did "solve" it for now, thanks for finding that workaround!
I'm still puzzled what might cause such a strange behavior.
