I correct myself: fancontrol does have to be installed separately. It includes pwmconfig. When I ran sudo pwmconfig, it reported "There are no pwm-capable sensor modules installed." This despite the fact that sensors-detect *did* find a sensor that it could use and configured the coretemp m

You say that you installed lm-sensors (and fancontrol, although I think fancontrol is simply part of the lm-sensors package) and detail some things about lsmod and the desired fan control settings. But when you ran sensors-detect, what did it detect, and what if any modules did it proposed to

KDE uses QT, but it's not QT. UbuntuOne, or many other apps, used QT and nobody noticed it. We're not forced, really. Other environments will remain in GTK. But not LXDE. Have in mind that QT is faster than GTK, modern and it's Desktop independent, unlike GTK, that depends heavily on GNOME. Trust

We don't know yet. We have to decline using GTK libraries with time, because we cannot keep two widget sets in a single ISO. Also, the only way to get a desktop homogeneous is to keep all the widgets calling for the same graphics. Look, right now we're using gtk3, gtk2, tk, plainX and qt. It doesn

Obviously it's a GTK3 error. GTK2 can't use CSS styles for rounded corners. And it seems that your compiled version of Synaptic is not using well the theme engine. Try to test with another (recent) GTK3 theme like ZukiTwo. Probably you'll see the same errors. Anyway, this doesn't happen on AMD64 o
