The fonts and colours for the GTK themes will be read in from your Qt
settings so any KDE font/colour changes will also affect your GTK apps.
-If you want Gtk2 apps to use the theme, create a symbolic link to the new
-theme like this:
- ln -s /usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk-2.0/gtkrc /etc/gtk-2.0/*-slackware-linux/gtkrc
+If you want Gtk2 apps to use the theme system wide, create a symbolic
+link to the new theme like this:
+ ln -s /usr/share/themes/QtCurve/gtk-2.0/gtkrc /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
+
+Note that in Slackware 13.1, KDE and GTK assume different things. The GTK+2
+package is compiled to use /etc/gtk-2.0/*-slackware-linux/gtkrc, while KDE
+is hardcoded to look in /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc. Consequently, you will probably
+want to put your preferred gtkrc in the GTK path, and then put a symlink to
+it at /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc for KDE to use (or vice versa - either will work).
+
+Alternatively, gtk-chtheme works fine on a per user basis.
