virt-manager theme is all black

Altiris · 09-05-2015, 07:49 PM

So I haven't opened up virt-manager in a long time, but when I first opened it up it did not look all black, it had a theme consist with the rest of XFCE. I opened it today and everything is all black, here is a screenshot attached.

I have tried removing virt-manager (I used sbotools from Slackbuilds) and re-compiling/installing it but same problem persists. I have not done any changes to themes within XFCE or the system...really weird. What else can I do troubleshooting wise?

Try a different GTK theme?

Are you setting any colors in your .Xdefaults or .Xresources?

just had something similar happen when I upgrades the Nvidia packages 352.41: nvidia-settings gui went all black. I reset the theme (switch to another), exited X, then startx back in, set original theme, and Bob's yer uncle.

Actually yeah thats what I had to do. I had to switch theme, log out and log back and then and then it worked. I tried switching theme before logging out/in and it wouldn't change. Very glad that it is fixed though.
