Okay, I think I got it working... For the benefit of any "Arch"-ers that come along after me, here's the page that had the answer: https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GTK%2B#GTK.2B_1.x I installed the package "gtk-smooth-engine" (as recommended), and that seemed to have made the...

That would work--but "Clearlooks" doesn't appear in my "Customize Look & Feel" (lxappearance). I went to box-look.org and downloaded a "clearlooks-light", and applied it using the "OpenBox Configuration Manager"--but it (as everything has so far) only chan...
