Sorry about not trimming the last post. I was wrong about KDE. I installed Kubuntu 10.10 to see if it was a real solution. QT based apps display fine with themes and fonts but anything gtk still has the same problem even when gnome is not present. It does seem to be specific to gtk based apps if that helps.
