To Use Control Theme Options Which Require Less CPU Resources

Some control theme options can be slow on systems with limited CPU resources. To reduce CPU usage, use one of the following control options:

• Crux

• Mist

• Simple

To change the control theme option, execute the following command:

# gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_theme option-name

For example, to use Simple, execute the following command:

# gconftool-2 --type string --set /desktop/gnome/interface/gtk_theme Simple

Alternatively, users can use the Theme preference tool to select the appropriate option.
