Trolltech makes Qt run as GTK+



Great news for us Linux fans. One of the pain points is the different look and feels of GTK+ and KDE/Qt apps.

It seems the fine folks at Trolltech are working on making this go away by allowing Qt apps to use GTK+ for all the rendering (not imitated, real GTK+).

Thank you Trolltech, this is a great idea. I would love to see Amarok and KTorrent blend seamlessly into my Ubuntu GNOME desktop.

This will bring a lot of new application to the gnome desktop.

Lot of people wont use KDE on the GNOME desktop, now there will be solution for that.

Looking forward to this.

Absolutely. Kudos out to Trolltech for this...if you think about it, it kinda validates Qt as the ultimate cross-platform toolkit.

Such was the case when second life linden labs decided to pull the plug on several banks in the game. Some of these banks offered the system to buy lindens what real life banks would an interest rate. Some people get their secondlife money out of the banks says that Second Life depositors may have US$ 750,000 in real life money. The new rules state that only banks with proof of an applicable government registration statement or financial institution character will be able to operate with cheap linden in the game. Second Life has proven to be a popular place for companies to set up virtual shop where many players can exchange their favorite something with all kinds of linden dollars.
