dash icons in Ubuntu 11 11lost
I lost all dash and launcher icons in ubuntu 11 10 as a result of trying to reduce their size (via ccsm I think)
sudo dpkg-reconfigure dash ( from help) did not restore them is there any way to avoid total re-installation of ubuntu 11 ? |

Hello,
These are not MY findings but were kindly given to me by Mssrs Lee Kelsey PHD and Satyaveer Arya: (unfortunately it depends on the availability of a GOOD profile of a local user; I used my grandson's) 1 type ccsm in a terminal( Ctrl Alt T) window of the affected pc 2 In the ccsm screen go down to Preferences then Profile Import 3 Import the profile that shows icons Advice: 1 Try to make a new dummy account before ; I tried to create 2 in the terminal that looked they were actually implemented ; None showed, though, in the graphical interfaces yet they must still be there as they prevented use of their names in new attempts! 2 get a grandson or gdaughter! Good luck! |
