The fact that it goes away and comes back a second later is intentional; 
kicker needs to be restarted when its configuration has changed.
It keeps the icons after the restart here - guess you did anything else to 
change kickerrc without restarting it before that... (By any chance, did you 
run kpersonalizer first? Versions prior to 2.2-5 messed with kicker 
configuration without doing the right things to restart it).

Closing as rawhide because I think the kpersonalizer bug caused the lack of 
icons.


Comment 2 David Mason 2001-08-15 14:07:15 UTC
yes, kpersonalizer ran but everytime I try to change the width the icons go away
- occasionally when my mouse runs over the icons the animation (icon growing
like Mac OS X) works but the icon dissappears once the animation is complete and
the icon is returned to the regular size. I have updated to Rawhide - same thing
