Personally, I still don't like the new one; so voting on the bug is probably better than voting in a poll ;-)

changed again..

1. as root put attached image (xterminal.png) in
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/48x48/apps
(you should see terminal.png in there)

2. edit:
usr/share/applications/hildon/osso-xterm.desktop
change icon to "xterminal"

3. in xterm, type
sudo gainroot [enter]
gtk-update-icon-cache -f /usr/share/icons/hicolor [enter]

4. reboot


im pretty sure step 3 isnt needed but this worked for me


u can use either of these, the one on the right is the Ubuntu xterm icon

f2thak why (in step 2) do we have to edit the xterm.desktop file? cant we just replace icon with same name and reboot for it to show?

Yes all my icons i make are lhe same touch style icons from the n900 so they will all match nicely, i think there called the Ovi icon set that was also used in n97 etc, so if you want any icons just ask.
