Hi, is there any chance how to compile own themes from KDE-LOOK? I looked in Window decoration section and found few pretty good ones, for example:

Alphacube (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Alphacube?content=32099)
http://www.kde-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/32099-1.png

Knifty (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Knifty+%28KDE+%3E%3D+3.2%29?content=8841)
http://www.kde-look.org/CONTENT/content-pre1/8841-1.png


Or this one is pretty cool, simple minimalistic design for low resolution: Malize (http://www.kde-look.org/content/show.php/Malizie?content=67157) theme, but it needs deKorator for running, its possible to do that?

I will see what I can do, but it wont be quickly

Note if you are going to change your theme's, I recommend saving your current settings as a theme first, so you can come back if you want.

make your lists

I also encourage people to make thier own tablet friendly themes and share, the ones people like I will include in KDE by default.

We need the Crystal and Domino window decorators and the Domino style. I think that is enough to keep everyone happy. Those two themes are very highly configurable so they should satisfy most people. Both can be customized to be very minimalistic.

Hmm i tried it to compile by myself in SDK but with no luck. It keeps complaining about missing Qt libraries, althoug i got them from there (http://ftp.ch.debian.org/debian-ports/pool-armel/main/q/qt-x11-free/)

I was messing around with the themes and I have one problem. Now when I launch the application manager I can not get the menu to update the list or add/remove repositories. Anyone know how I can get the menu back?
