Description Keli'i Martin 2003-05-13 20:55:39 UTC 
Description of Problem:
When I try to use the gnome-theme-manager by
clicking on Applications -> Preferences -> Theme,
I get an error message.

Steps to reproduce the problem:
1. Click on Applications -> Preferences -> Theme
2. 
3. 

Actual Results:
I receive the following error message in a pop up
box: "The default theme schemas could not be found
on. This means that you probably don't have
metacity installed, or your gconf is configured
incorrectly."

Expected Results:
I would expect that it would pull up the
appropriate interface for the Theme Manager.

How often does this happen? 
It happens every time I try to bring up the Theme
Manager.
