What I did was:

cvs -z3 checkout -r themes-2 gtk+

cd gtk+/

./autogen.sh

make

make install

cd themes

./autogen.sh

make && make install

cd ../gtk

cp /usr/local/share/gtkrc /usr/local/share/gtkrc.bak

cp testgtkrc /usr/local/share/gtkrc

edit the gtkrc to point to your themes dir:

from gtkrc:

 include "/usr/local/share/gtk/themes/pixmap/gtkrc"

if you install in /opt/gnome, it would be:

include "/opt/gnome/share/gtk/themes/pixmap/gtkrc"

Note:  there is more than one theme.  You can change them by cahnging
the pixmap part above.

Hope this helps,

Phil
