Re: gtk+ theme preferences does not change theme

Beto--

Not all the applications you download from the gnome2 snapshot are
ported to gnome2 (and gtk 2), so, for now, you'll have to change your
themes in two places.

To change them for Galeon, Pan, etc, try:

	o key Alt-F2
	o type in "gnomecc"
	o click on the advanced link
	o click on the "Gtk+ Theme Selector"
	o select a theme.

That's all there is to it, really.  Eventually, everyone will port their
stuff to Gnome 2 and things will be much, much easier.  I've noticed
that with the newer pan (I had to download it separately), they're
re-organized the interface a bit, made it a lot simpler, really making
an effort to go along with Gnome's simple elegance initiative.
