[arch-general] Unable to change file and folder icon theme to Human
Hi, I am using archlinux with gnome 3. I am trying hard to change my icon theme to human but it just doesnt change. ~/.gtkrc-2.0 http://pastie.org/1983860 and ~/.gtkrc.mine http://pastie.org/1983863. I tried lxappearance too. After I click on apply and close it gnome kinda restarts and when i open nautilus it shows no change. I had tango icon theme so i deleted that dir from /usr/share/icons. Now it has switched to the default gnome icon theme. How do i change it to Human icon theme? also when i run pcmanfm i get the following output in terminal ** (pcmanfm:3532): DEBUG: unable to load icon . GThemedIcon application-x-bittorrent gnome-mime-application-x-bittorrent application-x-generic ** (pcmanfm:3532): DEBUG: unable to load icon . GThemedIcon application-x-xpinstall gnome-mime-application-x-xpinstall application-x-generic

I'm not a GNOME user myself, but I think the basic problem is that you're modifying your GTK2 settings while current GNOME uses GTK3. You might want to read the wiki article on GNOME 3 [0] which has a whole section dedicated to customization. [0] https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/GNOME -- Wieland
You need to change the theme in gconf :) gconf-editor and go to /desktop/gnome/file_views and /desktop/gnome/file_views then in those tree menus change the icon_theme option to your liking :) -- (\_ /) copy the bunny to your profile (0.o ) to help him achieve world domination.
