Exactly the same issue for a non root user. root is ok. This problem is very strange. What version of gnome-panel do you have in your system? Can you verify the location and permissions of gnome-main-menu.png? (it should be under /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps) I get the same error message here after just upgrading to gnome-2.10
(gnome-base/gnome-panel-2.10.0).

What is the value of the gconf key /desktop/gnome/interface/icon_theme in your system? (you can check this doing e.g. "gconftool-2 -g /desktop/gnome/interface/icon_theme") Also, please try starting gnome-session from a terminal and paste here the output that it sends to stdout/stderr. comment #2: I have gnome-panel 2.10.0 and the icon you asked about is in the path you described. comment #4: That command returns "gnome". I'm pretty sure I tested it using the default theme before and still had the missing icon. Haven't tried gnome- session business. Will try it if I get a chance. (I'm currently travelling so I may not be very responsive to requests for information.) Hi, My gconf key says "crux" My gnome-session error output is 4.7K, so I'll add it as an attachment. Std out was short and boring. Created attachment 60754 [details]

The gnome-main-menu.png image loads fine in an image viewer, so it is not corrupt. I experience the same problem. Copying /usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps/gnome-main-menu.png to /usr/share/pixmaps removes the symptom. Please don't use workarounds as copying the image to /usr/share/pixmaps while we debug the problem. Let's try one more thing before moving to trickier things. Run the following command as root: gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor And tell us if it changes anything. Thanks. That solution has worked for me. I can now create a main menu without errors. It works for me too! Great! It said "cache created successfully" seems to work for me. `gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor` fixed the problem here as well. The fix is now part of gnome-panel's ebuild. Thank you all for your help. That is fixing of symptoms. I think I asked not to cache hicolor yet just because of these reasons, but i guess it didn't get picked up. I didn't know about foser's plans for handling icon updates, but from what I
understand the idea was handling it in gnome2.eclass. For this reason, I've
added the function gnome2_icon_cache_update() to the eclass; it's called from
gnome2_pkg_post{inst,rm}, so we can start removing any piece of code that calls
gtk-update-icon-cache manually from the ebuilds now.
If there is any feedback regarding this new function, I suggest we discuss it in
another bug, we've abused this one enough :).
