lxde-base/lxappearance x11-themes/gtk-chtheme x11-themes/gtk-theme-switch the last one allows one to specify the theme on commandline... but you don't have to run them all the time like gnome-settings-daemon... just run them once, select your theme and they will set up your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 so that all gtk apps will use that theme from now on... (unless you start up gnome-settings-daemon which will enforce the theme selected in gnome settings... don't know why they did it that way...) yoyo
