Thread: No icons in menu and menus_have_icons ineffective


all gtk apps (firefox, gnome, gimp, eclipse, etc.) not have menu icons on fresh ocelot install. had same problem 1 year ago, managed resolve it.

classical workaround issue set following gconf property:
gconftool-2 --type boolean --set /desktop/gnome/interface/menus_have_icons true

(and optionally buttons_have_icons well)

except time, doesn't work... tried everything, reset account, created new one, each time resettings these boolean values...the icons won't show up.

have idea of going wrong? should submit bug report?
thanks,
marc

no need bug report, it's 11.10 has moved gconf gsettings/dconf...

install dconf-tools -package, start dconf-editor , you'll find releavant options under org.gnome.desktop.interface.

...or use following commands:
code:
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface menus-have-icons true gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.interface buttons-have-icons true
