Re: Gnome apps in KDE

["Cezar M. Tigaret" <c tigaret ucl ac uk>]

Hi,

You probably have the option to apply colors and styles to non-KDE applications
enabled, in your KDE desktop. Try to disable it -- depending on which 
KDE version you have, it's located either in the "Colors" or "Styles" 
module, under "Look and Feel" in the KDE Control Center.

HTH.
