When I use the (great) gnome-theme-manager, everything works as expected, except for: - I get a number of popups with 'file not found' errors (xine|xscreensaver|network.xpm and gnome-hint|mozilla-mailnews.png) - the .desktop files on the desktop and in the preferences:/// stay unusable and get the default-document icon from the icon-theme I choose. > Which gconf-Keys did you edit? > The key is called /desktop/gnome/interface/icon_theme. Set it to > "Default" or "gnome", or did you try exactly that before? Exactly that. Currently is set to 'gnome' I probably should mention the fact that last week I manually removed ALL gnome and gtk related directories in /etc and /usr and ~/, then 'aptitude purge'd all gnome and gtk related packages and then reinstalled them all. I did this because at that time, not only the desktop icons didn't work, but all new gnome interface-related tools stopped working. Now everything works fine except for the problems mentioned above. I also should mention that after the reinstall of mentioned above, I installed the following gdm from cvs to get the graphical greeter to work: ii gdm 2.4.1.3-1 As far as I can remember, I did not do other really stupid things (..) Thanks, Ronald
