If you are upgrading from + xfce 4.4 to 4.6 you probably still have the Rodent theme selected. This + will lead to several "missing" icons when starting up xfce. + Make sure to switch as well to the Tango theme. To do this just open the + Settings Manager and select Appearance. Inside the Appearance dialog + switch to the Icons tab and select the "Tango" entry in the list on the + left side of the Icons tab. + + For enabling the Reboot/Shutdown functionality of xfce's logout dialog + please read the note which gets printed out after the installation of + x11-wm/xfce4 about how to configure PolicyKit. + 20090223: AFFECTS: users of Tcl/Tk AUTHOR: mm@FreeBSD.org -- cgit v1.2.3
