Sorry, I completely misread your original report. But, I also can't reproduce that issue either :). I just changed the icon theme from the default human to Mist, and without restarting Do, the icons used for folders are now changed. See attached screenshot.
Additional info: I have compiz enabled (do you?) ** Attachment added: "Human theme with Mist icons" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12765909/Screenshot-1.png -- gnome-do does not notice change of icon theme https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/204368 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
