Hi Dick,
It sounds like they're either assuming you have certain files in your
icon library or forgot to include links to tutorial resources -- those
files are not part of Qt. It should be easy to get substitute images.
When I look in this folder on my Ubuntu system with Gnome 3 installed:
/usr/share/icons/gnome/32x32/status/
I see these icons:
stock_volume-0.png stock_volume-max.png stock_volume-med.png
stock_volume-min.png stock_volume-mute.png stock_volume.png
That sounds pretty similar to what they're asking for, and it being Qt4
they were probably assuming a system with Gnome 2 installed. I bet their
default icons set has images with those names.
I have a number of folders with mute/min/med/max icons on my system:
/usr/share/icons/oxygen/, /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark, etc. You
should be able to find suitable substitutes in one of the
/usr/share/icons folders, depending on what window manager and/or theme
libraries you have installed.
HTH,
Jason

I'm working through the tutorials at http://zetcode.com/gui/pyqt4/. So
far, they all work, mostly. The mostly part refers to missing images.
The section on PyQT4 Widgets includes an example of the use of a
slider. The slider displays fine. But missing when I run the program
is the image of a loud speaker and the ) shapes added to the right to
indicate a sound level. There are a set of png files used by the
program -- mute.png, min.png, med.png, max.png -- but they don't show
up when I run it. Unless I skipped over something and missed it, I
don't see anything that tells me where these files are supposed to be
located. This is true for any other program in the set that uses an
image file.
Is there some common set of files I should have downloaded when I
installed python-qt4 on my Ubuntu 12.04 system?
Synaptic shows I have installed:
Package Installed Version Latest Version Description
---------- ----------------- --------------
-----------------------
python-qt4 4.9.1-2ubuntu1 4.9.1-2ubuntu1 Python bindings for Qt4
I don't see anything obvious in the list of packages in Synaptic, like
some image library. What am I missing?
Thanks.
