Hi,

this should be fixed in 2.6.11 (see below ChangeLog snippet).  My patch
may be cleaner (and makes sure to use the same icons as in xconfig) but
that's really not important.

Here's the discussion:

        http://marc.theaimsgroup.com/?l=linux-kernel&m=110194950501639&w=2

ChangeLog-2.6.11: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
        [PATCH] make gconfig work with gtk-2.4
        
        I need this to make gconfig work under gtk-2.4.  Without this, it just
        coredumps.  There is some problem with pixmap creation/usage from XPM
        in the way it is done in gconf, so I just added some stock icons.  It
        is even prettier..;)
        
        Could someone test this still works on gtk-2.0 or 2.2 ?
        
        Changes:
        
        - change the wiget class 'button' in glade files to something known to
          glade (GtkToolButton)
        - use 'stock-id' property for toolbar buttons instead of
          "stock_pixmap"
        - change unknown signal "pressed" to "clicked"
        - remove manual setting of icons in gconf.c
