    I had the same problem a while pack with Jaunty. Not sure what I did to fix it though. I will fire up the buntu box and try and firgure it out for you. What icon set are you trying to load just out of curiosity?

    not sure if you have tried this but I found this on the forums while waiting for my box to boot up...

    Re: how to change icons?

    --------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Open your home directory and set it to show hidden files. You can do this by selecting it from the view menu, or just by pressing Ctrl+H. Then you want to look for a folder called .icons if you open that folder you will see all the themes you have installed. Then you just go into the folder for the icon theme you are using at the moment, and replace the icons to the ones you want to use. the firefox icon is probably in the scalable/apps folder.

    If you haven't installed a new icon theme and are just using one of the icon themes that came with ubuntu then this way wont work because the default theme icons are somewhere else (i dont know where as Ive never bothered looking). if you want to install a new icon theme like the kind you get from gnome look then its really easy to do. Go to system > preferences > appearance. when the appearance preferences window appears click install and point it to the tar.gz file you downloaded and it will install it. you dont even need to unpack it.
