This is because of differences in icon themes between version of GNOME I think. Same thing happened when I upgraded to version 2.4 from 2.2 on redhat 7.3... Try selecting a different icon theme: Run gnome-theme-manager and click on 'Theme Details' and then on the 'icons' tab.. Hope this helps.. Daniel On Thu, 2004-08-19 at 11:28, George H.
