I'm sorry, I just saw your post now for some reason. I don't think the problem is with tango-icon-theme because I have 2 identical laptops with very similar configurations and neither of them have that package installed. Only 1 of the laptops is having this problem. The problem is with system tray icons that are not panel plugins. For example: wicd, twinkle, blueman, orage. The icons for those do not appear at all except for the twinkle icon which appears right in the center of the screen. All other icons work fine, and system tray icons that are panel plugins such as xfce4-mixer and clipman work fine. Any ideas? - Grant
