Can't Change Icon Theme in GNOME with XGL...

sancho · 04-18-2007, 01:08 PM

I finally got XGL/Beryl running on my laptop (FC6 x86_64, fglrx) and it's quite stable, so far. The only problem is that, when running the XGL session (in GNOME), my icon theme defaults back to the Clearlooks theme and I have no control over it whatsoever; if I try to change it in the Themes window, I can click other icon themes, but no changes occur on my desktop. There might be other aspects of the theme I have lost control over to (i.e. fonts?) but I haven't tested that much yet. If I log out and then log into a non-XGL GNOME session, my icon theme goes back to whatever it was set to.

I have checked and DBUS is running (that's what "ps aux|grep dbus" suggests, anyway...). In fact, I've done a side-by-side comparison of the output of "ps aux" when running an an XGL session vs. running a non-XGL session and the only differences I see are in the extra Xgl process (which is to be expected) and the order of some of the processes. ~/.xsession_errors doesn't say anything that seems directly related to the issue, either.

Any ideas? Any help is greatly appreciated! Thanks.

I've attached the output of "ps aux" to this post so that you can see what is running when I am logged in.

This is a normal, non-XGL GNOME session...

Take a look at the script that starts up your xgl session, that is /usr/sbin/xgl-startgnome

For example, here's mine

Code:

#!/bin/sh
xgl_opts="`/usr/sbin/xgl-info | grep accel | cut -d " " -f 2-`"
/usr/bin/Xgl :1 -fullscreen -ac -br -dpi 96 $xgl_opts &
sleep 3
export DISPLAY=:1
cookie="$(xauth -i nextract - :0 | cut -d ' ' -f 9)"
xauth -i add :1 . "$cookie"
exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session

the important lines are the ones here

Code:

cookie="$(xauth -i nextract - :0 | cut -d ' ' -f 9)"
xauth -i add :1 . "$cookie"
exec dbus-launch --exit-with-session gnome-session

these lines will restore the themes, and will restore your shutdown and reboot buttons as well. Try adding them after "export Display=:1"

I got this information from reading this howto here(note, scroll down to adding an xgl login session).

I don't fully understand how this works, but my /usr/sbin/xgl-startgnome script has been working solidly for the past two weeks.

You da man! That worked perfectly!

My script was generally identical, but the last three "critical" lines were simply "exec startgnome". I commented that and pasted the final three lines that you sent, and everything works great now.

Thanks!
