Elementary has icons for most of the missing names, but only as .svg - and it inherits gnome,hicolor. At that point, I wasn't sure if I could use svg icons [ getting confused by something else I'm doing! ] so I googled for some of the other missing icons : turns out several of them are symlinks, installed by gnome-icon-theme. I had another look at what was installed by gnome and they *are* there as .png. Tried setting the theme to gnome, and then GNOME, no change. Installed elementary anyway, ran gtk-update-icon-cache, changed the theme to elementary. Still no joy. During that google session, I found a recent thread for some embedded distro talking about these missing icons, not found even after they were copied into a theme, and segfaults (on arm, I think). I suspect a bug in 0.4.6's icon handling. It is usable with the '[x]' missing-icon icons, and provides tooltips in English - for me that is adequate for the moment. There is a maybe-related bug (at launchpad!) marked as low priority, I get the impression that using commonly-installed icons is not a design priority. Giving up on this one for now. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

And that's why I was changing theme names in .gtkrc-2.0. I took a look at oxygen-icons-4.8.4 (so big a tarball!), but it only contains one of the icons that were reported on stderr as missing, so I don't think it will help. ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page

Um, is that GTK+2 or GTK+3 version of Midori? Because I'm sure that you
need to specify icon theme in gtkrc for GTK+2 or settings.ini for GTK+3
$ cat /etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = "gnome"
$ cat /etc/gtk-3.0/settings.ini
[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = Adwaita
gtk-fallback-icon-theme = gnome
Afaik, without this it will fall back to hicolor-icon-theme which does
not have all those icons :)

Thanks - that machine already has all three of the current gnome
icon theme variants. I'll take a look at oxygen.

You can install gnome-icon-theme{,-extras,-symbolic} if necesary. Those
are not really gnome-dependent. You can also install oxygen-icon-theme
if you like. It's just icon theme. I always install those no matter what
setup I have.

[blfs-support] Midori - icons
My final niggle with current packages! I hadn't used midori for several months, but thought I'd try the current version (0.4.6) with gtk+-2. Three of the icons are missing (open a new tab, add a new bookmark, and reopen a previously closed tab or bookmark). I've never had this problem on midori before (the last version I tried was 0.4.2 with the "experimental" gtk+-3 build), but google found various people with similar problems in the past. Generally solved by specifying a different theme in ~/.gtkrc-2.0. I added gtk-engines-2.20.2 and tried all the themes, no joy. Another past suggestion was to use Tango so I installed tango-icon-theme-0.8.90 and changed my gtkrc-2.0 but it made no difference. Then I realised that xfce has gtk-xfce-engine so I added that. Still no joy. Interestingly, if I run midori from a term it reports on stderr that all of the following are missing from my theme: stock_new-tab, gtk-add, bookmark-new, stock_add-bookmark, gnome-stock_trash, gtk-undo-ltr. Any clues, please ? ĸen -- das eine Mal als Tragödie, das andere Mal als Farce -- http://linuxfromscratch.org/mailman/listinfo/blfs-support FAQ: http://www.linuxfromscratch.org/blfs/faq.html Unsubscribe: See the above information page
