Re: Squeeze: Gnome icons missing
I have know desktop but I think where you need to be is Gnome Menu System Tools (not System) Configuration Editor desktop gnome interface buttons_have_icons | menus_have_icons . If configuration editor isn't there, install gconf2. Finally I managed to get it to work. But strangely it was a bit different then you described. First of all I had gconf2 installed. It was gconf- editor I was missing. Yet still something was different since I could only run it from the terminal -- there was no menu entry for it. It might be because I try to keep my Gnome as minimal as possible since I don't use most of the additional software. So I might still be missing something but anyway it worked.

I am not the OP, but I noticed this change between Lenny and Squeeze and wished to change it back to the way it used to work in Lenny, but never bothered to try to figure out how. This works perfectly. Thank you. -- .''`. Stephen Powell : :' : `. `'` `- -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble?
