I've gotten the pixmap themes to work by grabbing the gtk-engines module from
Gnome CVS, and compiling the engine in the "pixbuf" directory (_not_ pixmap,
although the shared library is called pixmap).

I've seen it become available recently as a slackware package in the gnome
directory of slackware-current. Maybe other distro's also carry it.

I'm using the Mozilla Modern 2 theme with gtk2 now, although I've had to modify
it's RC file a little. The rc file for gtk2 is called '.gtkrc-2.0' instead of
'.gtkrc'.

Maybe the pixmap engine should be distributed with gtk2? Or at least as a
complimentary package from gtk.org?
