[Bug 69977] Re: Unable to login after gnome-theme-manager crash

[Garyu]

Aaaah, I finally figured it out by moving/renaming directories one-by-one I found my way to ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/interface/ where there was a file using the icons I had chosen last. Contents of this file:
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
        <entry name="icon_theme" mtime="1162583279" type="string">
                <stringvalue>Chameleon-Anthracite-Regular-0.5</stringvalue>
        </entry>
        <entry name="gtk_theme" mtime="1162507003" type="string">
                <stringvalue>ubuntured.dan-erik.com</stringvalue>
        </entry>
</gconf>

As it turns out.... Chameleon-Anthracite-Regular-0.5 is a mouse cursor
theme located in the .icons folder, it is not an icon theme. I remember
having a lot of difficulties finding a way to change mouse cursor themes
in Dapper, but I don't think they turned up in the theme manager as icon
sets.

Now it is very easy to recreate the crash: Just choose the mouse cursor
theme as an icon theme and everything will go down. I am attaching a
tar.gz of the theme that caused me all of these problems. Just extract
it in the ~/.icons/ folder....
