It should contain a custom-icon key, change that to "true", then add custom-icon-file in there with your icon filename. An example of how to set a gconf key would be: gconftool-2 --type string --set \ /apps/panel/profiles/default/objects/34234/custom-icon-file \ /usr/share/pixmaps/foo.png Or try gconf-editor. thanks Havoc it works fine Franck
