That's another good lead to solving the mystery!
I can tell you why the next day it was OK: you probably ran an update or installed a package. You have to run SuSEconfig as root to apply those icon changes.
With your tip, I got the Send/Receive button, but there's a whole whack of them still missing.
However, I did not have a 'tango' folder in my /usr/share/icons. I assume you installed the icon-theme-tango. Did you do that on purpose, or was installed by something else?
I FINALLY found a workaround for this!
In essence, what's happening is that KDE is trying to impose its Oxygen theme on Evolution and this theme lacks the proper icons. You can either try to merge all the /usr/share/icon/gnome icons with the usr/share/icon/oxygen and then run SuSEconfig (NOT TESTED, try at your own peril).
Or, give up on this fight and tell KDE to not impose any theme mapping:
put an empty, hidden file called .no-qtrc-to-gtkrc-mapping in your home folder:
This will make Evolution look like it's run in a GNOME setting and all icons are there!Code:cd
touch .no-qtrc-to-gtkrc-mapping
After installing the send/receive icon I'm only missing (that I noticed) two or maybe three icons. These are located in calendar/tasks/memos. I think the better solution for me would be to solve these view missing icons (as disabling kde theming for gnome/gtk will also effect firefox).

If it doesn't bother you, I guess you're all set, but I had a ton more missing - click the dropdown next to the "New" button on the main toolbar, for example. Also, the icon for "Meeting request" is missing, etc. etc.
And since I hardly use Firefox anymore (Chrome all the way), I'm OK with Firefox being a bit "bulky".
I'm not too impressed with the response on this bug in the Novell Bugzilla. It's a heavily sponsored Novell product and there is absolutely no response to this, even though it was identified as a problem in the pre-releases.
Ironic, isn't it - a Novell sponsored product that doesn't work on KDE - the "preferred" Window Manager for openSUSE - wait! also a Novell sponsored initiative.
Hi,
Finally found a better solution. I create a symlink from the directory /usr/share/icons/gnome/16x16/stock to /usr/share/icons/oxygen/16x16/stock and from the directory /usr/share/icons/gnome/32x32/stock to /usr/share/icons/oxygen/32x32/stock. After this I ran SuSeconfig and this solved the missing icons problem for me :)
regards,
Joris
Thanks - I'll give that a try.Quote:

Evolution works just great in Gnome.
