hi all, i just installed DSL onto my pendrive, it was great and fast and all, however, i can't remember what happened exactly how my icons disappeared; i just remember i downloaded yahoo messenger, xchat and icewm then i suddenly can't see the desktop icons even if i tried to switch window managers or restart the whole computer. When i choose DSL->Desktop->Full Enhanced Desktop, i can see that there are still icons, but right after that(some milliseconds), my icons are gone again. if this is a repeat post, kindly give me the link. Thanks and more power to DSL!This issue has been brought up a number of times, and it seems like the problem is with icewm. Not sure what it's doing, but every time someone installs icewm their icons break.
One possible fix is to copy the original icons from /etc/skel/.xtdesktop/ into /home/dsl/.xtdesktop/. You'll need to do this as root, and then change ownership of the files.
