ive been messing with the icons for a while now and am extra confused now. has any one noticed if you change the icon theme to flat orange, most of them show up? there is a readme in /usr/local/lib/pixmaps/x11/themes that talks about changing the color to suit different themes. maybe this could be a...

micko, your post was exactly what i was looking for. funny thing, i had that libpoppler thing fixed in my early builds, i guess i overlooked it this time around. epdfview will be broken too, but should work with your aforementioned symlink nico edit i sort of gave up on, early builds had it removed,...
