This doesn’t work for KDE3 apps (e.g. Kile). To do that you basically need to install KDE:

sudo apt-get install systemsettings kdebase

Then Applications->System Tools->System Settings->Appearance->Style-Widget Style->GTK+.

This whole dependency thing is pretty annoying – I had to install over 1GB of stuff just to use Kile. Oh well I guess any reasonably installation is going to end up having both KDE and Gnome.

There is an idea to make it default in Ubuntu: http://brainstorm.ubuntu.com/idea/1744/

Thanx! Never knew this was possible. Now I can enjoy my VirtualBox even more!

this leaves one question: how do I configure Qt (or KDE) to open files with double-click.

The problem is: when K3B is the only KDE-app you have installed, it is kind of annoying that its dialogues have the single-click behaviour.

Andrew Min:
The package is called qt3-qtconfig and it’s in the universe repository. The package name is different than the command to run it.

I don’t know why, but I can’t find qt3-config in the repos.
