Lost drive icons in pcmanfm
« on: June 27, 2010, 03:15:14 AM »
I don't know what I did, if anything. There are no drive icons that normally show in the left pane next to a partition (when in the "Location" or "drive" view at the bottom left). Also there is what looks like a not found "x" icon in the tab.   :(

Did you update from testing by any chance?

No, I don't think so. I don't have testing listed in the Section(s) for the repositories.

Can you post the contents of your /etc/fstab?

The drives are working, pcmanfm mounts and unmounts are working. It is just the drive icons are missing. So I don't think it has anything to do with fstab. I looked at it to check and there is nothing unusual in there.

Okay. I guess I misunderstood your question.

May be user error   :-[, i must have deleted icons somehow. I notice that all the "places" subdirectories under /usr/share/icons/hicolor/ have no icons.

Is there an easy way to find out where pcmanfm looks for certain icons?

Did you recently change your icon theme? In the default nuoveXT2 folder in ~/icons, there should be around 50 or more device icons in the devices folder.

How do you change the icon theme?
There is nuoveXT2 icons in /usr/share/icons, but .gtkrc-2.0 is set to a different theme and its timestamp shows it has not changed since the icons went missing.

NuoveXT2 icons are the icons used by lxde. Did you check the devices folder? Look in /usr/share/lxde/config  line 8.

If that's Dolphin from KDE4, you can place it again...

Go to View => Panels => Places
or simply press F9 on your keyboard when you're in Dolphin....

It's also possible to move this panels to another place, etc...

Hopefully this works for you..


EDIT: language mistake

Not dolphin >> PCManFM It is the file manager for the LXDE desktop.
