done. using mate-brave icon theme. looking good now.

Boss you are 100% spot on

I will try the tip as soon as i can and then report

Well, in my case i did not use a custom theme or icons. After installation i was missing icons both from menu items and launch panel below. I managed to get icons in the launch panel by editing items and linking to icons. However, i do not know where to edit the menu items?

After installing 14.1 xfce, i noticed missing icons from some menu items. how can i get icons to appear besides all menu items

Thanks boss

Guys,

How to set swappiness permanently to something other than the default 60.

Thanks I managed to solve this problem using your instructions.

By the way I used sudo because without it parole was not showing any errors

I have just installed 14.1 XFCE. while trying to play an avi file in parole the following errors are appearing

mahmood@darkstar:~/downloads/$ sudo parole ABC.avi
