This is probably due to GTK icon theme caching...  After you've
installed the applet iwth 'make install' you have to run this command to
get GTK to notice the changes:

gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor

This isn't a problem for the RPM packages because they do this in the %
post and %postun.  However, you'll have to make sure this gets done
whenever you install/uninstall the images in whatever package manager
you're using.

It should be enabled automatically...  I'll have to check this out on my
FC3/STABLE_0_3 box and see if I can come up with anything.
