I have a problem with fonts, appearance of GTK and KDE-based applications and cursors in Kubuntu 11.10 after upgrade from 11.04.
I want all of my applications, both GTK and KDE, under sudo and under my normal user, to look the same (using standard Oxygen theme and Arial font).
My usual way works only partially, here are the steps I usually do:
- Set up KDE widget style to Oxygen under my normal user (already set by Kubuntu installation), set up KDE UI fonts to Arial.
- Set up GTK widget style to oxygen-gtk under my normal user (already set by Kubuntu installation), set GTK fonts to be the same as KDE fonts.
Set up GTK style for some non-KDE-aware GTK apps, using gtk-theme-switch2 and gtk-chtheme, to oxygen-gtk, set up UI font to Arial.
Repeat steps 1-3 for widget style and fonts under kdesudo.
However, not all applications look in Oxygen and use Arial font after these steps after upgrading to Kubuntu 11.10 from 11.04.
Below are all screenshots I wanted to illustrate this question, merged into single image, due to askubuntu.com does not allow me to post more than one link or an image at the moment:

software-properties-gtk under sudo looks like the first picture from the link above (marked software-properties-gtk).
Strange, setting GTK wigdet style using gnome-control-center looks like second picture from the link above (marked gnome-control-center), there is no oxygen-gtk theme (could this fact be related to the problem?)
in KDM, cursor is Ubuntu default cursor (DMZ White), and not Oxygen (this happened after installing Gnome) - how can I change it?
in KDE applications under kdesudo, fonts remain Ubuntu and do not change after I set them to my typical Arial font I use for UI, screenshot is the last picture from the link above (marked kcmshell4 fonts).
Sometimes, in KDE applications under my ordinary user, fonts spontaneously change to Ubuntu font - why this happens and how can I avoid it?
Thanks.
