Eclipse Dark Theme on Linux Mint Cinammon

I'm struggling to run any plugin that makes Eclipse IDE more "dark". I tested both:

  1. http://rogerdudler.github.io/eclipse-ui-themes/
  2. https://raw.github.com/guari/eclipse-ui-theme/

But the problem is that under Cinnamon buttons background doesn't change. But for instance tabs from tabbed pane does. Here you have screenshot how it looks like enter image description here

Any idea how to fix that?

Some mint themes come with controls.

In Linuxmint 17:

  • install cinammon theme delorean-dark or D-dark_smaragd (I prefer the first one)
  • quit and restart cinnamon-settings
  • now you should be able to select delorean-dark or D-dark_smaragd for controls on other-settings tab

Eclipse is fine now, but synaptic looks theird after that (gnome 3 fallback theme):

  • themes are installed to ~/.themes - so I copied them to /root/.themes
