Hello

sorry for my english
I installed a fresh debian(amd64) minimal and install all to get xfce4 to run
and it is really nice thank you for this.

But I have a problem
I cant see normal folders they have no icon, others have but not the normal one
so I tried to install Cheser icon theme in /home/major/.local/share/icons/Cheser
but only all other icons were changing

I dont know how to give the normal folder an new icon
or i missed to install a packet where the icon was in
dont know plz help me

Re: cant see normal folder icons

You can use either emblems:
right-click ---> properties ---> emblems
or the user-dirs
The fixed list of user directories can be found and modified in ~/.config/user-dirs.dirs).
No support for custom folder-icons at the moment.
