stupid question re packages
 

how do i get cool little icons associated with the packages that i install. i've installed gcvs and firefox and they both have the same little icon with the gear in it. as stupid as it sounds, i don't really want to have tons of the same icons posted on my desktop. thanks.

right click the icon and change it in its properties :shrugs:

or go to kde-look.org and download icons

Take a look at firefox subdirectories or shared if it has for an icon (mine is in /home/gbon/firefox/chrome/icons/default/default.xpm).

thanks for the info, i'll take a look when i get home.
