    I don't have any files other than .gtkrc-1.2-gnome2.

    Inside this, it just links to : include "/home/bpark/.gtkrc.mine"

    I guess GNOME really wanted to make this modular? I don't have this file either. Can
    you tell me what man page to look up for the syntax for the gtkrc files?

    By the way, what is up with all these broken up things in GNOME. Eversince I did an
    upgrade, it's been a nightmare when it comes to small things like this. I really like
    Debian but it seems like I'm spendin a lot more time trying to fix minor and major
    issues rather than enjoying them.
