Hello all, brand new arch user here.
I've come from a Debian background, and have done a lot of work over the past few days in turning my new arch install into a productive system. I have however, run in to an issue that I've been unable to solve on my own.
Right now I am using xfce4 and e16/17 as my primary X environments. My problem is this: how do I get the gtk settings established in xfce (fonts, themes, etc) to carry over into window managers like E when I run gtk apps within them? I installed the gnome-settings-daemon pkg, and added it to the startup daemons in rc.conf, but that does not seem to have worked. By what manner can I carry over this gtk functionality into wm environments like E?

Welcome to the forums Thunar.
I'm running E17 and all of the GTK2 settings (theme, icon sixe, icon theme, and font) for my setup are in ~/.gtkrc-2.0. It looks like this:
gtk-theme-name = "Smooth-japan-flat"
gtk-icon-sizes = "panel-menu=16,16:panel=16,16:gtk-menu=16,16\
:gtk-large-toolbar=16,16:gtk-small-toolbar=16,16:gtk-button=16,16"
gtk-icon-theme-name = "Gnome"
style "user-font"
{
font_name="DejaVu Sans 9"
}
widget_class "*" style "user-font"

That seems to have mostly done the trick, thanks a bunch, skottish. Firefox however is still stubbornly refusing to obey, defaulting to the ugly-mode.

The icon theme, fonts, or everything else?
