[solved] Firefox appearance when chrooted in XFCE

So I run a 32-bit chroot to use firefox with java and flash.  Works just peachy - except that the UI looks like the default gtk theme when the rest of my UI has pretty a XFCE look.  Any way I could make FF look like the rest of XFCE in my native 64-bit environment?

I cannot give chapter and verse because I know next to nothing about xfce; however, what I used to do when I ran Firefox in a chroot (from Gnome) was install my preferred Gnome theme and icons inside the chroot.  With luck, something similar will be possible with xfce.

Re: [solved] Firefox appearance when chrooted in XFCE

Solved, you were right - I installed the gtk-xfce-engine.  It looks exactly the same now.  Also, I installed the font theme I'm using on my 64-bit system, and because I'm sharing the home folder in my 32-bit chroot with my 64-bit system, it all came to life without configuration.  Thanks for the help!
