Same problem here. Clean install of Ubuntu 10.10 amd64 (The full release version, with all updates applied as of 12 October 2010.
Installed nvidia drivers, after a reboot the ubuntu theme has gone and is replaced by the default gnome theme (which is quite ugly). It is possible to get it working if you run this: ----- killall gnome-settings-daemon gnome-settings-daemon ----- Then log out, and log back in again. Then the theme works nicely, until you reboot / log out again. Note that sometimes I've noticed several gnome-settings-daemon processes running at 100% CPU usage - these can be killed with no effect to your present theme for the current session. Also note that when I run gnome-settings-daemon (after running killall gnome-settings-daemon) this is returned to the console: ----- rhub...@rhubarb-sx58:~$ gnome-settings-daemon ** (gnome-settings-daemon:4716): WARNING **: Failed to acquire org.gnome.SettingsDaemon ** (gnome-settings-daemon:4716): WARNING **: Could not acquire name ----- Which makes me think it's a problem to do with the gnome-settings-daemon ;) -- Meerkat (10.10) does not apply theme properly https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/649809 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
