[Solved] Gnome 3 Shell - Icons Missing After Update

After my last update session, some icons went missing in Gnome. Even more unsettling, only some are missing. From what I can tell, my application icons haven't gone anywhere, but things such as minimize, restore, close, etc. are 404. Here's a photo to explain: https://vps.nullh.net/uploads/gnome-icon-issue.png I also noticed nvidia is included in the last update. I searched the forums, but all of the other problems seemed to be different problems (e.g. application icons were all bunched up/missing, desktop icons "missing", etc.) I feel like I should probably have more icons in the folders, too, but I haven't looked in there before the problem to be sure. Also, Alt+F2 "r" doesn't make a difference, the shell reloads but the icons are still AWOL. If anyone has any ideas, I am all ears.

Re: [Solved] Gnome 3 Shell - Icons Missing After Update

I ran gnome-shell --replace to try to get some logs out of it. Apparently, it doesn't know how vector files work any more.

[zack@zack ~]$ gnome-shell --replace

Re: [Solved] Gnome 3 Shell - Icons Missing After Update

Answered my own question. Turns out it was a gdk-pixbuf was the culprit, as indicated here: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+sour … bug/799505

I didn't try to regenerate the cache, I just went straight to pacman -S gdk-pixbuf2. After that, a quick Alt+F2 "r" and I had my icons back. Yay! Just posting this to put this info out there in case someone else has a problem.

Hey, I just wanted to say thanks; I was having the same problem, and running 'pacman -S gdk-pixbuf2' as you suggested did the trick.

Many thanks. I got very frustrated when I needed to work and found this..  (It also resolved the issue with GDM 1st login)

Ah, wonderful! Finally Gnome shell is usable again. It resolved the issue with the GDM 1st login as well as the inability to unlock, which has been driving me insane!
