..I think the difference is the lack of the -u option; even though the scripts help seems to indicate it is needed, it doesn't work if you use the option.  ::)

Sorry, but no. I tried it without the -u option first. Its failure and the error message in the terminal is the reason I added the -u option.

I just saw your package hit the drop box...  I was in the process of adding a zenity progress dialog to switch-themes command, as it acturally takes a while to complete (..wouldn't want a user to restart before it had finished  ;))

I'll post the change as soon as I finish the reboot to test the effect.

Okay. I've pulled the SRPM.

I hadn't thought about that. ::)
The switch for me took less than a second, but my machine has a fast processor and 3 GB RAM.

..it appears to go fast, becuase kdesu / gksu runs swith-themes as a separate process and the script appears to complete; if you watch top as it runs you will see a number of gzip processes run while switch-themes runs in the background

(I'm using 2.6 Ghz athlon x2 and 2Gb ram, but it still takes awhile)

Here is what I have if you would like to test (attached):

Neal, sorry I "vanished" for some time, but I got caught up in my job.

Now I finally got a chance to have a closer look in the forum, and I'm happy to see that the script is indeed working. I tried it twice, and it does exactly what I wanted.

Great job!  :D

I installed all of the Plymouth themes from the repo today and set out to try each of them with our new script...  I soon found that the unordered list, and a lack of a theme description in the zenity list made it difficult to recall which themes I had already tested! :-[ :-X

..because of this I made a few more modifications:

Changelog
 - Sort themes list alphabetically
 - Added theme description to zenity list (as read from theme's .plymouth file)
 - Added a check so that if current theme is selected as the new theme, the switch-themes script is not run.

Now if only I could get zenity to display a picture of the theme!  ::)
