After a few updates, the GTK programs I use (GIMP, Chrome) reset to a really strange Windows 200-ish, very ugly setting, and aren't taking style cues from my KDE settings like they used to. I have updated to KDE 4.8, am running Linux Min 12 KDE, and have been applying small updates when the list gets long, so every 4-5 days. I have tried to adjust the GTK+ style settings within the Application Appearance menu, but the options don't seem to affect the problem.
Is there something I installed or updated that I might be able to revert back to the Mint default, or something I could edit?
Thanks.
