Re: Bluecurve icon theme in gnome-2.2

[Chris Chabot <chabotc xs4all nl>]

If i remeber correctly (i did some minor icon theme hacking as a fun
test) Bluecurve inherits the hicolor theme.. (which is basicly a KDE
theme i think) and not the gnome theme.. Since Bluecurve does not
impliment all the gnome 2.1.x icon types, it will search hicolor..
which also does not include any of the new gnome 2.1.x icon types..
thus the icons are not found

This can easely be fixed by editing:
/usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/index.theme

and changing the line:
Inherits=hicolor
to
Inherits=gnome

Hope this is of some help,
