From Bugzilla Helper: User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.4.1) Gecko/20030926 Description of problem: The volume control applet doesn't get crossed-out with a red line when it is muted like it did in Red Hat Linux 9, for example. Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable): gnome-applets-2.3.7-1 How reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1.Right click on the volume control applet 2.Click on "mute" 3.Icon didn't change Actual Results: The icon didn't change Expected Results: I expect the icon to reflect the "mute" status Additional info:
Maybe just an icon theme problem?
It still doesn't happen with the newer Rawhide applets package. Does it fetch an icon from another package? $ rpm -q gnome-applets gnome-applets-2.4.1-1
This also happens with Fedora Core 1.

The problem is caused by the fact that in redhat-artwork the "mute" icons are identical to the "zero" icons (symlink). The "mute" icons are supposed to be icons to be drawn over a base icon. See gnome-applets-2.4.1/mixer/mixer.c:562 where the base icon and the "mute" icon are combined with gdk_pixbuf_composite. When volume-max.png and volume-mute.png (=volume-zero.png) are combined when the volume is muted, the visual effect is that the icon does not change. The solution is to add "mute" icons in redhat-artwork similar to /usr/share/pixmaps/mixer/volume-mute.png . ls -l /usr/share/icons/Bluecurve/*/stock/volume-mute.png redhat-artwork-0.88-1 Changing component to redhat-artwork. Changing version to 1.
This is still happening with redhat-artwork-0.9.6-1 from Fedora Core 2 Test 3.
I am experiencing this also, but someone on the fedora-test list mentioned that their applet is working properly (i.e. red slash across applet icon)
Forgot to mention FC2T3: redhat-artwork-0.96-1 gnome-applets-2.6.0-4
In reply to comment #9 above, it will work correctly (i.e. will change to a crossed-out icon) while using a different icon theme. It's a Bluecurve issue as described in comment #7. Will this be fixed for FC2 final or an update?
Not fixed in FC2.

Hmmm. It seems the recent version of the mixer applet doesn't even use the Bluecurve themed icons.
I filed https://bugzilla.redhat.com/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=134773 about not using the bluecurve icons, and i removed the volume-muted icon from redhat-artwork cvs. It'll be in the next build of it.
this bug has been fixed in Fedora Core development
