No, I don't really use GNOME, only some of their apps... I just found this problem annoying since I wanted the icons in gnome-panel-data, but not use the panel itself ;) I solved it for now by just extracting the icons out of the package, uninstalling the offending packages, and copying the icons to /usr/share/pixmaps.. Now I still get problems because I use gdm (and gdm wants gnome-session, session wants panel, panel wants panel-data, etc...), but I guess I can live with this for now, until I can replace gdm with wdm or something... :) Thanks, Patrix.
