My Icons took a vacation

Hey, Im running Mandrake 9.1, and everythings been great. I have no problems with anything but my icons. I've had Drake for about 1 week. In KDE, My icons are gone! In Mozilla, my icons are there, but in Konqueror, they're not. The icons on my panel are gone as well, all of them but Mozilla. On my desktop, they're all gone but the, "Welcome" icon.

Please hlep me, thanks.

Are you running as root? Dont, it's crippled like that so you dont. Use the user account it tries to make you create at the install time.

Nope, Im running on my user name. I only run as root to change things that need the root user to change them.

Ok, weird. Did you have the icons and then suddenly they're gone?
Do you remember installing or removing any software just before this, or messing with the KDE Look and Feel options?

I downloaded some icons, and then I went to install them, but I didnt know how, so I closed the Control Center and said discard changes, I installed Glib 2.2

Try going back into kcontrol and select the default theme and apply, or push the defaults button and then apply. I think you may have selected an incomplete icon theme, the default icons should still be about.

Very sorry to get back to you this late, but it worked. Thanks a lot.
