GTK, MDK, and XFCE

[Andrew]

Hi list,
I had responded to a post on the XFCE forum
http://xfce.lindesign.se/db/viewtopic.php?t=527 in which someone is
having problems with the gtk themes.  I realise that I have them too,
and can't figure out how to rectify the situation.

Problem: GTK themes don't really change appearance, just icons on
buttons and such.  (That is, colours and sizes and shapes always stay
gray and plain.)

We're running Mandrake 9.2.  Here are some of the rpm's we have
installed:
