And is there anything inside /usr/share/applications?No, I have a /usr/share/applications, but i don't have a /usr/share/applications.in.
I deleted all thumbnails, How to get them back?
I'm using right now the iconless puppy.foxpup wrote:I mean, you look in /usr/share/applications and click on some files there to see if that starts an application. Please test it.
And do the files there have an icon or not?
In /usr/share/applications i click any .desktop and all works fine but none of them have icon.
I noticed i have an image that i can see using arcade puppy but here i just see this:

if it's, completely wrong.
Anyway if nobody can give a better solution than just "BURY" this is ended.
If you do not have a /initrd directory, this would mean that you have installed Puppy
as what is called a "full install". Forum member "bigpup" asked you this in the 2nd
post, and you did not answer his question, as far as I can tell.
Do you remember what type of installation you did for your tahr Puppy? There are
three types of installation possible for modern Puppies:
-- full
-- frugal with pupsave file
-- frugal with folder
Do you remember which one you used? This is important, because the procedure
to get back your icons will be different for a full install than the one I presented
previously.
Also, please answer MochiMoppei's question? Please reread his last paragraph
from his post here http://murga-linux.com/puppy/viewtopic. ... ost#980506
and answer his question. If you have icons there or not will tell us a lot. TIA.

So it really is just the icons you are missing.
We are back at About #1 from Musher0.
You will need to copy
/usr/share/pixmaps
/usr/share/icons
/usr/local/lib/X11
from somewhere, because they contain most icons.
Instead of going to /initrd, you can go to the .iso of Tahrpup. By clicking you can open it and click on the puppy_tahr???.sfs to open it and continu to the 3 maps you have to copy. Copy these 3 maps in the right places.
Hopefully that will fix most.
EDIT: Musher0, sorry, I was writing while you posted.

Does that answer your question musher0?
I answered him it was a full install you can see it from my second entry.Forum member "bigpup" asked you this in the 2nd
post, and you did not answer his question, as far as I can tell.
Code: Select all
root# googlechrome
/usr/bin/googlechrome: line 2: export: `GOOGLE-CHROME=/opt/google/chrome/google-chrome': not a valid identifier
Inconsistency detected by ld.so: dl-open.c: 689: _dl_open: Assertion `_dl_debug_initialize (0, args.nsid)->r_state == RT_CONSISTENT' failed!
And google chrome is not the only one there are a lot of other apps
that are not working.
as i say some of them are working but many others not.Just another little test: if you click on a triangel on your desktop, does the application start?
I just downloaded an image to test and i couldn't see it from my image viewer.
this is more serious. even if i copy the icons from the iso provablely i wouldn't see it. Puppy does not let me see them but, as i say, at arcade puppy i can see all of them. Why?
Yes thank you lolo69 this answers the question.
Sounds as though the gtk/gdk system is broken.
Perhaps try the following:Source: http://www.murga-linux.com/puppy/viewto ... ost#722565
This will put the gtk/gdk caches in working order again.
Type the gdk-pixbuf...etc. line in a console and hit Enter.
What happens?
IHTH.

I've rebooted this like 50 times and it has not changed a bit.foxpup wrote:What a surprise!

Sorry
This is far out of my league. I've no idea what.
Does the menu hold even after reboot?
