I've experienced the same things as Alessio and allstar1960. Only the themes from the kde-kdm-themes package. Others simply refuse to even load into the theme manager. In one case, the theme archive I used in Kubuntu 7.04 was called an "invalid theme archive" by the kcontrol module.
I also attempted to modify the kdmrc file by changing "Theme=@@@ToBeReplacedByDesktopBase@@@" to the path to a specific theme folder (as per the directions at kde-look.org). This caused the login manager to display the message "theme cannot by parsed." After I clicked "ok" it took me to the default login screen. I've had the same issue with three different installations -- two with Kubuntu 7.10 i386, and one with Ubuntu x86-64 + kde-core. -- kdm theme manager doesn't work https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/157252 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kubuntu-default-settings in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
