[SOLVED] Image/icon trouble after slackware-current upgrade

camphor · 01-22-2010, 09:51 PM

Hey all. I recently upgraded to slackware-current from Slackware 13 via slackroll, and have only encountered one problem. My file manager no longer thumbnails images, and icons (mostly PNG) aren't appearing no matter what GTK theme is set. Running from the command line produces no errors, and when brought up in something else (say feh /path/to/icon.png) it works perfectly. This is the only hitch I have encountered so far. The same thing happens with emoticons in Pidgin. Does anyone know of a fix?

A screenshot is attached.

Post the contents of your ~/.gtkrc* files.

Did you install all the new packages that have been added?

.gtkrc-2.0

Quote:

# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT
include "/usr/share/themes/Xfce-dusk/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"

style "user-font" {
font_name = "Trebuchet MS 8"
}

widget_class "*" style "user-font"

gtk-font-name="Trebuchet MS 8"

include "/home/greg/.gtkrc.mine"

# -- THEME AUTO-WRITTEN DO NOT EDIT

.gtkrc.mine

Quote:

gtk-icon-theme-name = "Cheser"

Attached is another screenshot, this time of Firefox.

Every new package has been installed, and all packages were upgraded.

This should not have to be done but you could try running as the user with problems:
# update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime

And as root run:
# update-mime-database /usr/share/mime
