That's the icon it uses when it can't find the required icon.  What do you
have in ~/Choices/MIME-icons

That directory didn't exist under Choices.  I created it and copied the
files from /usr/share/rox/Choices/MIME-icons.  Now both
problems are solved!  Thanks.

I thought that system wide icons and configs were supposed to be used. 

The strange (and maybe unrelated thing) is that, after this simple
copying operation, all my shortcut keys for the filer had disappeared. 
Not a big deal though.

Again, thanks.

Did you install the Debian packages? That looks like a non-standard
location for Choices (should be /usr/share/Choices).

Yes, but /usr/share/rox/Choices is not one of the standard locations.  It
should have been /usr/share/Choices.  Have you been setting CHOICESPATH?  Or
not setting it?

avfs compile failure on SuSE

I have tried to compile avfs 9.3 with SuSE linux 9.0 with no
success--lots of header files are either missing else define
contradictory data structures.

At http://sourceforge.net/project/ shownotes.php?release_id=141270 
are release notes for avfs 1.0, and one of the fixes allows it to
compile on SuSE linux.  But there is no 1.0 release at the site.

Does anyone have avfs 1.0?  Has anyone compiled any version of it for
SuSE 9.0?

Thanks, Henry Harpending

Yep, that could work too. We might want to be more specific, though
(ROXLIB_USE_ZEROINSTALL or ROXLIB_LOCATION=...)

Re: avfs compile failure on SuSE

Running avfs successfully on SuSE 8.1.
Todo this I had to disable xml by using the
"--disable-dav" option when configuring.
What error messages occur during compilation?
