KDE4 apps on Gnome

Hello,

I've installed ktorrent from repos on Gnome and the program looks ugly, like windows 95 and don't appear any icon.

Any suggestion or comments about this?

I'd say yaourt -S qgtkstyle, but I don't remember anymore what version of Qt current ktorrent uses.  If it's Qt4, then you can use qgtkstyle to make it use your GNOME theme.

Thanks for the answer,

I've installed qgtkstyle from AUR (http://aur.archlinux.org/packages.php?ID=16964) and the theme works. But still no icon. Screenshot:

Re: KDE4 apps on Gnome

If you're using gnome, why not try a gtk bittorrent client? As Wintervenom suggests, you could try Transmission, Deluge is nice too, or if you're feeling console happy, you could use rtorrent

Hello,
Try setting an icon theme at the end of " .kde4/share/config/kdeglobals "

I use XFCE so mine is:

[Icons]
Theme=Rodent

I use Deluge, but I want to be prepared for Amarok and K3b update for KDE4. I'm trying use Exaile and Brasero, but I don't feel good with these lasts yet. More over, we have to have a way to support KDE4 apps on Gnome anyway.

I try put
Theme=Rodent
Theme=Clearlooks
Theme=GNOME
No one works.

Re: KDE4 apps on Gnome

Have you tried tips from http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Uni … d_GTK_apps ?
Installing qgtkstyle and running qtconfig made my qt4 apps look exctacly like those using GTK2.
Good luck.

Re: KDE4 apps on Gnome

I think you should have "systemsettings" you can set the icons theme in there.

If that still doesn't work (or there's no icons themes) you can try installing the oxygen icon theme, it's the default for KDE 4
