Description of problem: In order to have the oxygen theme everywhere, I used kdesu to tune my super user theme and selected oxygen widget style instead of iaora. Strangely, the application does not takes the theme, and even if it is said in systemsettings that the widget style is oxygen, it is still displayed with iaora. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): KDE 4.6.2 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. (Create the kdesu symlink if not created) 2. Use kdesu systemsettings to launch the system settings and set another widget style. 3. The application does not change and still takes the iaora theme.
The same issue is valid when using 'su -' from terminal to load kde apps as root. It seems that the style settings aren't applied if you're not fully logged in. Test case: - Create user a and user b - Log into user a, then load an KDE app as user b: $ su - b password: - Load systemsetting and try to change the widget style: $ systemsetting the changes don't have any effect.
This looks like https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=267770
It seems that the bug has been corrected upstream but will only available in 4.7 :(

Doesn't seem fixed, when looking at the upstream bug reports

We have KDE version 4.7.95-1.mga2 now, and a different default theme. Is this bug still valid?

The bug is still valid, but hidden. Now apps launched with kdesu will take the oxygen widget set, that is the default set, even if I change the theme to cleardots for example It is less annoying since I'm using oxygen by default, but the bug is still not fixed

I agree It is no closed as worksforme
