OK. This is driving me slighty crazy.
Filemanager is showing that the
qgn_grid_tasknavigator_web.png
altered icon .png is on
/media/mmc1
.
I have to get it copied over to
usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/
. I have already managed to remove the original
qgn_grid_tasknavigator_web.png
from there.
Can someone tell me where I am going so terribly, horribly wrong?
1. I open 'Xterm'
2. I do the "sudo gainroot" thing
3. I get the
/home/user #
and add
cd /media/mmc1
so it looks like
/home/user # /media/mmc1
and hit 'enter'.
4. I get /
media/mmc1 #
and add
cp qgn_grid_tasknavigator_web.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/
so it looks like /
media/mmc1 # cp qgn_grid_tasknavigator_web.png /usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon
.
I figure at this point, the .png should be moved over to the home folder/directory for icons.
5. But I'm getting a 'no such file or directory' message. But, like I said, the .png is definitely there, according to Filemanager.
What's really strange is the when I open an empty browser page and type in
file://usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/hildon/
, the directory comes up *without* any qgn_grid_tasknavigator_web.png - but the original icon still appears in the tasknavigator when I choose it from Control Panel - Panels - Task navigator. I haven't a clue where the icon .png is coming from, then, since, in theory, the only copy of the appropriate .png is on mmc1 *and* it's been altered.
I've restarted the N800 a couple of times but nothing's happened except the reappearance of the unaltered icon.
Can someone fill in the missing directions
weird.
