[pygtk] Custom theme

I suspect you're parsing the gtkrc of the theme itself (the one
in /share/themes) instead of overriding the configuration
in /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc

Try the following instead, replacing Raleigh with the name of the
theme you want to use:

rc_string = 'gtk-theme-name = "Raleigh"'
# Or, if you want an icon theme as well
#rc_string = 'gtk-theme-name = "Raleigh"\ngtk-icon-theme-name = "Tango"'
gtk.rc_parse_string(rc_string)

hth,
Dieter
