The icons on my workspace a blank. They have the images just don’t have any text. Everything else works perfectly.
Subject: Re : blank icons
Sounds like the 8.10 release of Ubuntu you are using. Have a search around the forums for Ubuntu 8.10 if you are and I think there are some solutions.
Ray ( http://www.rayd.co.uk ) from IBM manages to get it working on 64-bit 8.10, but I am sticking to 8.04.1 64-bit for now (need the RAM for VMs).
Rather stick to 32-bit if you can, as it is quite a fiddle to get it working on 64-bit. Also you have to use a JRE Plugin 1.6.12 beta 3 from Sun to get Java in a browser (finally).
Note : Ubuntu 8.04 32-bit is the only supported release.
Subject: Switching IDs
Thanks for the help. Turns out switching your ID to another user then make to the original fixes the blank icon issue. Once again thanks for pointing me in the right direction.
Subject: workspace no text - switch ID
I had the same problem, and tried the switch ID method. However, the problem still exists. Anyone can help further?

I also have blank icons…and the text in dialgue boxes has the wrong font as it does not display right…other than that, this is a beautiful client…just wish it had admin/designer so I could live in Linux…

I just installed FP1 for 8.5 on Ubuntu 9.04 (Jaunty). My workspace icon text has returned.
Can anybody else confirm/deny?
