    sudo cp .gtkrc-2.0-kde4 /root/.gtkrc-2.0 doesn't work

    When ever I do a new install I get synaaptic. This looks ugly in KDE but I would do:
    Code:
    sudo cp .gtkrc-2.0-kde4 /root/.gtkrc-2.0
    and that woould solve the look and feel.

    This doesn't work anymore with 12.10. I get this:
    cp: cannot stat `.gtkrc-2.0-kde4': No such file or directory
    Any ideas?

    There is likely no ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde4 on your system...I don't have gtk systemsetting modules installed, but they might be using ~/.gtkrc-2.0-kde (or something like that) these days.

    Check your home for .gtkrc-2.0 (general gtk config file) and .gtkrc-2.0-kde (kde gtk config file), you can copy the gtkrc to root's home with:
    sudo cp -i $HOME/.gtkrc* /root/
    (of course you can also copy the -kde config as the general config for root if you wish)

    If you wish to use the same configs for root and user, it might be a better idea to link rather than copy, though, as with links the root config would automatically change when user configs are edited without the need to copy again.
