If that is so, you're looking for the wrong MIME type. Directories in KDE3 are inode/directory. And that one works: $ grep Icon= $KDEDIR/share/mimelnk/inode/directory.desktop Icon=folder -- Thiago Macieira - thiago (AT) macieira.info - thiago (AT) kde.org PGP/GPG: 0x6EF45358; fingerprint: E067 918B B660 DBD1 105C 966C 33F5 F005 6EF4 5358
