Thank you, they really look cute ;) But is there any reason there is no default usable icon theme in ports? (I can, of course make my own, but just to know) And if I make my own port for an icon theme, where to place it instead of my home - just to be normally accessible for all users? Or maybe it is just easy to unfold it under /usr? JS

Hello,

what should I install to have icons in xfce? I always have most icons missing and did not find which port I should use.

Thanks, JS

I use the Buuf icon theme, it has all the icons I need and it looks interesting. ;)

Get it from here: http://gnome-look.org/content/show.php?content=81153

Download the newest version's tarball, create a folder named .icons in your home directory and unpack the tarball archive inside it. Then use the Appearance settings in XFCE to choose the icon pack.

Make sure you have the package hicolor-icon-theme installed!

I'm not sure, but I always use this icon pack, it's cute and most complete. Extract the tarball in /usr/share/icons/ and it will be available for all users.

I'm not sure why is there no default icon theme.

Hi Jose, thanks. I rather meant not a default icon theme for xfce as a dependency, but simply one or two icon themes available in contrib or opt repos so that one can easily install at least something using crux tools. Anyway, I don't see this as a crucial problem, though ... ;) JS
