I'm Sorry Ron, I see now that my reply to you may have sounded between
the lines as if you didn't do enough to find out the reason for your
problem. I wasn't thinking so at all. I was more like explaining myself,
thinking that it may seem silly not just to do the dist-upgrade.
So you solved your icon problem - that's good to hear. I still have mine
left. I'm too tired to start to solve it - the white sheet of paper
shall present every file and directory in my system for now :-)
Kind regards,
Ari
