gdk_directfb_gc_set_dashes() and filled polygons with n > 3 aren't implemented in Gtk 2.10.6 either, so a backport wouldn't help. I'm afraid that use of these functions would have to be changed in the Clearlooks engine and we would have to change the build to apply different patches to the directfb build; this would be relatively hard. I'm afraid that warnings are always printed by default, I couldn't find a way to turn them off without adding a special log handler. :-/ (The relevant code is in glib/gmessages.c in glib2.0, and the doc is at <http://developer.gnome.org/doc/API/2.0/glib/glib-running.html>.) > I have one question: how will implementing this clearlooks engine affect > implementing the bladr and "dark" theme?

It seems to reference /usr/share/themes/HighContrastLargePrint/pixmaps, but /usr/share/themes/HighContrast/gtk-2.0/gtkrc is probaly the bulk of the theme, and it would be a good start to try using this gtkrc. (Please let me know ahead of time if you need a gnome-themes udeb as well, but it would be easier to grab a copy from the relevant files and ship them in rootskel for now.) I didn't look into the Bladr theme. I'm not sure how you'll switch theme when someone wants the accessibility mode of the installer, do you have a solution for this already? Will you generate a gtkrc in /etc? -- Loïc Minier <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble? Contact [EMAIL PROTECTED]
