  • Fixing Mate Adwaita Theme Problems on Debian and Ubuntu Linux
    ? Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computers, Freedom Free Software GNU Linux, FreeBSD, Unix, Windows, Mac OS - Hacks, Goodies, Tips and Tricks and The True Meaning of life http://www.pc-freak.net/blog Fixing Mate Adwaita theme problems on Debian and Ubuntu Linux Author : admin After trying out GNOME 3.2.x enough and giving it enough chance I've decided to finally migrate to Linux Mate graphical environment (the fork of gnome 2 for modern PCs). I have to say I'm running Debian 9 Stretch on my upgraded Thinkpad R61, after 2 / 3 days upgrade operations from Debian 7 to Debian 8, from Debian 8 to 9. Just Migrated to Mate all looked fine, but just as I wanted to make the look and feel identical to GNOME 2, I played with Appearance because I wanted to apply theme Adwaita the one, the one so popular since the glorious times when GNOME 2 was a king of the Linux Desktop. To add additional themes to MATE, I've installed gnome-themes-standard package, e.g. apt-get install --yes gnome-themes-standard 1 / 2 ? Walking in Light with Christ - Faith, Computers, Freedom Free Software GNU Linux, FreeBSD, Unix, Windows, Mac OS - Hacks, Goodies, Tips and Tricks and The True Meaning of life http://www.pc-freak.net/blog This package provides a number of Themes I could choose from and one of them is Adwaita Not surprisingly, I faced a theme issue it complains about window manager theme "Adwaita" missing. Using the example for Adwaita mate-appearance-properties gives, I believe this is the "Proper" way to fix it, so do the following in order; The quick and dirty way when using it Select Adwaita theme Click on Customise Select the Window Border tab Select window border theme "TraditionalOk" and close A Permanent Fix to the Adwaita missing its Theme Manager using terminal / console I found that all I had to do to resolve the issue permanently was to do this; vim /usr/share/themes/Adwaita/index.theme And change at the bottom where it says MetacityTheme to say TraditionalOk instead of Adwaita.
