a program (i.e. kiax) that works perfectly, but missing some graphics in its interface

[Jeff Co]

How come this software did not come with the picture files? It seems to me 
to be an essential part of the package. Is there a solution that would not 
have to be based on guessing? In other words, rather than just trying out 
installing various packages, I'd rather find out what (picture) files kiax 
actually seeks and download them somewhere. How can I find out what kiax is 
looking for (at least in terms of the names of the files)?

If guesswork _is_ necessary, I could try out various packages, but it seems 
that I'm just wasting hard drive space, since all i need are a few picture 
files.

Neither. It's an issue with installing third-party software without all of
its dependencies. Try installing some of the icon and theme packages from
KDE, or maybe installing an application that uses the same icons (for
example, the KDE address book application probably uses the phone icon, and
so installing that would also install the icons).
