Description James Ogley 2005-10-03 17:25:12 UTC 
I finally got around to testing NetworkManager on RC1, the daemon now starts
correctly, but the GNOME applet fails to start.  It pops up a window saying

The NetworkManager applet could not find some required resources.  It cannot
continue.

Nothing is written to /var/log/messages or STDOUT

Please trying upgrading the gtk2 package, there was a bug in the icon theme caching.
Comment 2 James Ogley 2005-10-04 13:40:06 UTC 
Where would I find the updated package?  I have gtk2-2.8.3-3 and there's no more
recent package in the APT repository or via YOU.
Comment 3 Robert Love 2005-10-04 13:43:34 UTC 
#2: I don't know the answer to that, but this bug is definitely caused by a
problem in gtk.

Do

% gtk-update-icon-cache --force /opt/gnome/share/icons/hicolor/

And the world will be bright.
Comment 4 James Ogley 2005-10-04 13:48:08 UTC 
Ah, had assumed JPR meant there was an updated package, thank I'll give that a try.
Comment 5 James Ogley 2005-10-04 21:33:19 UTC 
Yeah, that did the trick, do I need to do that whenever SuSEconfig.gtk2 works
its wonders?

Assuming that there's an updated package (perhaps in 10.0 Goldmaster?) this can
be closed I guess...
Comment 6 Robert Love 2005-10-10 23:31:50 UTC 
Closing, its a gtk2 bug.
