Install xfce-mcs-plugins, then run xfce-mcs-manager on startup. Use xfce-settings-show ui to open the "User interface" settings and select an icon theme (default is hicolor, which does not contain any mime icons, thats why you see the fallback icon). > Many thanks :) > Christopher Harrison Benedikt _______________________________________________ Thunar-dev mailing list [email protected] http://foo-projects.org/mailman/listinfo/thunar-dev
