gnome-appearance-properties starts and does not response. I'm using compiz-fusion, but I think, I've tried without it and it hung anyway. (gnome-appearance-properties:23717): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engi ne in module_path: "hcengine", (gnome-appearance-properties:23717): Gtk-WARNING **: Unable to locate theme engi ne in module_path: "hcengine", (gnome-appearance-properties:23717): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_map: assertion `GTK_WIDGET_VISIBLE (widget)' failed (gnome-appearance-properties:23717): Gtk-CRITICAL **: gtk_widget_map: assertion `GTK_WIDGET_VISIBLE (widget)' failed When I re-run, first two warnings are gone. Reproducible: Always
Please reopen with the following info : - output of "emerge --info" - versions of gnome, control-panel, compiz*, gtk, ... - try to reproduce the bug with a standard theme engine such as clearlooks
Sorry for no info. I use clearlooks.

Created attachment 135084 [details] Screenshot of a buggy kcontrol. Doesn't work with metacity. Works when started from fluxbox. Actually it always works, but it doesn't redraw the interface, I can change things when acting "blindly". This doesn't have to be gnome issue, as kcontrol stopped working the same time gnome did - menu works, but left side is always blank/white. I've added hal and dbus flags recently, but I didn't use gnome before, so I can't tell what causes this bugs. I've recompiled both kcontrol and control-center, still the same results.
As a data point, it works fine for me with metacity. I don't have compiz-fusion, but I do have a clearlooks theme.
I fail to see why you are talking about the appearance capplet and then of kcontrol... anyway after adding dbus and hal to your use flag, did you emerge -DuNav world ?
Both failed at the same time, so it may be a common issue. Yes, I re-emerged world for new flags, and I've restarted my pc.
It got fixed by some recent updates. Works now.
