Is that in KDE? The KDE 4 version of the theme is called
quarticurve-kwin-theme, it should have replaced the old bluecurve-kwin-theme
automatically, you can set the theme in the options.
I realize the name change is causing some trouble, but as I did that port on my
own without Red Hat's approval, I didn't want to abuse the trademark.
If I hadn't done the Quarticurve port, there would be no Bluecurve theme for
KWin at all in KDE 4. You can't use KDE 3 themes in KDE 4.
