kde themes


I have upgraded to KDE 3.2 and now in my control center I do not have a theme manager. Any ideas on how I can add themes now?

I am positive I have

Backrounds
Color
Fonts
Icons
Launch Feedback
Screensaver
Splash screen
Style
Windows decorations

That is all I have

I think Styles are considered themes

JROCK, I have the SAME problem! After I updated to KDE3.2 my "Appearences & Themes" in the "Control Center" has no "Theme Manager!"

Quote:
Backrounds
Color
Fonts
Icons
Launch Feedback
Screensaver
Splash screen
Style
Windows decorations
That's all I have also. It's really strange. Does anyone else with KDE 3.2 have a Theme Manger, or not?

It seems as if in KDE 3.2 there is no theme manager just the seperate theme tools. I never used it though.

Click on Control Center and you will see Appearance and Themes. This site provides stuff for KDE 3.2, and gives instructions on how to install the themes in their theme downloads. http://www.kde-look.org/

I want to try this theme.

http://www.kde-look.org/content/down...ent=10518&id=1

below the "How to install"

Install the Theme/Style by either extracting and compiling it, or installing an RPM.
Open the KDE-Menu and start the Control Center.
Select "Look and Feel".
Select "Style" if the package you installed was a style, or select "Theme Manager" if the package you installed was a theme.
Select your theme or style.
Click "Apply"




if its unpacked then you'll see its a ktheme. And i dont see where to install this ktheme because i dont have a theme manager and also not a "look and Feel"

I'm using Suse 9 with KDE 3.1 and this theme is for KDE 3.1


Please help...
