>lxde-base/lxpanel-0.3.8.1 do not shows window icons in taskbar >All the icons are the same Yes, this is old bug in lxpanle. Try lxpanel-9999 from lxde overlay or find removed patch lxpanel-icons.patch from lxde-overlay which has been applied upstream
Created attachment 184682 [details, diff] removed patch that enables icons to appear correctly For your convenience I've retrieved the patch from an archived version of the overlay ...applying it, taskbar icons work again
Created attachment 187386 [details, diff] Modification to the ebuild, using lxpanel-icons.patch This patch is intended to make things easier to devs :) Tested and proved to work fine.
Is this patch already applied? I installed lxde-meta and then the ebuilds from lxde-overlay. In both cases, I get a desktop with no icons, no icons in the menu or application-shortcuts. Pcman file manager shows no icons too, I just can see the text entries. I couldn't get the patch working manually with the sources downloaded by the overlay either. The KDE file manager Krusader, e.g., started in the lxde environment, has no problems showing icons.

That was my first try. Seeing no icons made me try the overlay. Both, the portage ebuilds and the overlay give me the same result: no icons as described.
OK, which version of lxpanel are you using? Try to wipe your ~/.local and ~/.config directories (do a backup first if you wish) to start with a clean lxde setup. And please please use portage provided ebuilds to make debugging easier.
O.K.: 1. I removed the overlay lxde 2. I unmerged all packages installed by the overlay (containing lx in their name) 3. I installed lxde-meta-0.4.2 from portage 4. I closed my kde-session 5. I moved .config to .config_save and .local to .local_save, so their is no folder .local oder .config in my home directory 6. I restarted /etc/init.d/xdm which launched kdm 7. Started lxde with the appropriate entry in the kdm-menu The result is the same. The only Icon I could see was in the programm-menu the "tool"-icon beside the entry "appearance". Nevertheless, starting this programm, there is even no preview visible of the icon-set it offers (e.g. gentoo or crystal etc.)

After doing some search this seems to be my problem: http://forums.gentoo.org/viewtopic-p-6007645.html#6007645 So I did: * (for each user) $ update-mime-database ~/.local/share/mime/ * (as root) # update-mime-database /usr/local/share/mime/ and finally there is a desktop and menu entries showing icons including a background picture. So my problem doesn't seem to be related to lxde, but to x11-misc/shared-mime-info-0.70 .
The pkg_postinst() of x11-misc/shared-mime-info-0.70 suggest the above fix, so I am marking this bug fixed. Thanks for the heads up.
