GTK Apps in KDE.. (SOLVED)

Okay, this is getting annoying. Every time I log in, GTK applications have the default look and default X cursor until I run (not change settings) gnome-theme-manager and gnome-mouse-properties. What's more important IMO is that applications keep the Wasp theme... but having the mouse cursors set permanently would be nice too.

And no, please do not answer Gtk-Qt. Some programs crash with it, and besides it just doesn't look good anyway.

Hmm, this isn't a problem for me, but have you thought about having gnome-theme-manager and gnome-mouse-properties run on start up?

Have you tried putting the theme, font, and cursor settings in ~/.gtkrc-2.0? I use gtk-chtheme to set the first two and then just add my cursor options to gtkrc.mine which gtk-chtheme sets to automatically include into .gtkrc-2.0.

Haven't really wanted to always have the two GNOME settings programs at startup. Well it'd solve having to run them manually, but also I'd need to close both of them every time I log in.

Also, sean, mind telling how the the config files are supposed to work? I don't have the files in my $HOME directory (might be part of the problem) and gtk-chtheme crashes when I select a theme:

Thanks for the sample .gtkrc-2.0 .. with so little documentation for the actual configuration files it was hell. <_<

I realize this is solved already.

But I usually find it more convenient to replace the include line with
