Ah, this time that worked here, but I know for sure that even a reboot
does not help my PC at work.
If it is the gconf notification bug, maybe it's possible that
theme-manager breaks something if receives only part of the
notifications? (I don't even know which notifications there are, so its
a very wild guess) Now switching around more, the bug reappeared
already.

However, since I was able to catch a glimpse of the Clearlooks theme.
It's still a far way to go if we want to beat OS-X though. We probably
need to wait for better engines, I don't think it's a realistic short
term goal.

Anyway, I agree that this is definitely better than the current default,
so let it come.
I still think that would make a better icon theme:

It's not yet complete though.
