I also installed a purple icon & theme set "
humanity-colors" with "
Ambiance / Radiance" which has 8 different coloured themes / icons & support for both dark & light panels.
** See end of this post for details of how to make the Themes & Icons also work for GTK3 Apps (Roxterm / Gdebi & others) **
The tabbed File Manager is
SpaceFM - the default File Manager in the next version of Antix M12.
First grab the dependency - the original
humanitiy-icon-theme deb
hereAdd the following to
/etc/apt/sources.list:
Code:
# Humanity-Color Icons
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/ravefinity-project/ppa/ubuntu oneiric main
Import the PPA key / remove the incorrect source & install themes:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:ravefinity-project/ppa
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ravefinity-project-ppa-wheezy.list
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install humanity-colors
sudo apt-get install ambiance-colors radiance-colors
sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-pixbuf
sudo apt-get install gtk2-engines-murrine
sudo apt-get install gtk3-engines-unico
# For themes that support XFCE,LXDE and openbox
sudo apt-get install ambiance-colors-xfce-lxde radiance-colors-xfce-lxde
Install LXAppearance to configure theme & icon sets:
Code:
sudo apt-get install lxappearance
or alternatively set
~/.gtkrc-2.0 (changing the username at the bottom) to:
Code:
# DO NOT EDIT! This file will be overwritten by LXAppearance.
# Any customization should be done in ~/.gtkrc-2.0.mine instead.
gtk-theme-name="Classic-Ambiance-Purple-Xfce-LXDE"
gtk-icon-theme-name="Humanity-Colors-Purple"
gtk-font-name="Sans 10"
gtk-cursor-theme-name="DMZ-White"
gtk-cursor-theme-size=0
gtk-toolbar-style=GTK_TOOLBAR_BOTH
gtk-toolbar-icon-size=GTK_ICON_SIZE_LARGE_TOOLBAR
gtk-button-images=1
gtk-menu-images=1
gtk-enable-event-sounds=1

gtk-xft-antialias=1

gtk-xft-hintstyle="hintfull"
gtk-xft-rgba="rgb"
include "/home/your-username/.gtkrc-2.0.mine"
As the Humanity-Colour themes are originally for Ubuntu it gives Ubuntu logos in Synaptic. To change this back to Debian images run the following as Root (
note we are copying
.png to .svg for this to work):
Code:

I'm also testing qtFM
here which seems to be most complete with the
Faenza icon theme which can be installed as follows:
** EDIT ** The
humanity-color /
ambiance themes also work well with qtFM once the mime cache is updated as shown at the end of the qtFM guide
here Add the following to
/etc/apt/sources.list:
Code:
# Faenza Icons
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/tiheum/equinox/ubuntu oneiric main
Import the PPA key / remove the incorrect source & install the icon theme:
Code:
sudo add-apt-repository ppa:tiheum/equinox
sudo rm /etc/apt/sources.list.d/tiheum-equinox-wheezy.list
sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install faenza-icon-theme
Download
Faenza-Fresh (additional application icons) & for Blue Folders (rather than Ubuntu / Gnome looking brown) - grab
Faenza-CupertinoUnpack both of these & place the Faenza folders into
~/.iconsTo set the Faenza icons system wide either use LXAppearance to set the
icon theme to
Faenza-FreshOr change the 2nd line in
~/.gtkrc-2.0 to:
Code:
gtk-icon-theme-name="Faenza-Fresh"
Personally I just force Faenza-Fresh in
qtfm by setting the following in
~/.config/qtfm/qtfm.confCode:
[General]
forceTheme=Faenza-Fresh
This then gives me a Root Terminal icon for my qtFM Custom Actions - change the line for it in the
qtfm guide (under the
[customActions] section of
~/.config/qtfm/qtfm.conf) - to:
Code:
%04=folder, Root Term here, gksu-root-terminal, gksu roxterm %F
I've also added qtFM to the Tools Menu of SpaceFM - it opens /usr/bin more quickly & is handy for creating symbolic links with the Custom Action I added. It also shows thumbnails of images which was useful for correcting the icon error above in Synaptic.
Making Icons & Themes work for GTK3 AppsRoxterm &
Gdebi are GTK3 apps so they will look ugly until you do the following (this example is for the Purple Theme & Icons):
Code:
ln -s /usr/share/themes/Ambiance-Purple-Xfce-LXDE/gtk-3.0 ~/.config/gtk-3.0
sudo nano /usr/share/themes/Ambiance-Purple-Xfce-LXDE/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
& add the following to the end of
settings.ini:
Code:
gtk-icon-theme-name="Humanity-Colors-Purple"
