Version: (using KDE KDE 3.5.5) Installed from: Ubuntu Packages OS: Linux When a user downloads a theme in a compressed form the natural reaction is to uncompress it yet uncompressed themes are not detected. Enabling them or at least generating a warning upon detection of an uncompressed .rc file would be more helpful.
Created attachment 26916 [details] Patch for detecting uncompressed ksplash themes I have written a patch for KDE 4.1 You can now select theme.rc files. The patch copies the whole directory of the theme.rc file into the splash-theme directory and reads the name of the theme out of theme.rc
