Description: Any comments would be much appreciated, I'm new to this whole Linux area and this is my first real attempt. The only thing I'm a bit iffy about is the aqua background and white text for the Active title bar but it is starting to grow on me...
Any idea on how to change the icon for the KPPP modem monitor thing? It reminds me too much of Win95...
Hi,
Could you be kind enough to enlighten a few of us (I'm sure there are others) about where to find the Crystal Icon set? ;)
The screenshot is gr8.
Thanks.

It took a bit of finding but I got there, thanks to the 'Finding Connectiva Crystal...' post and after a bit of guess work I found the mirror list on Connectiva's site as the FTP given was quite overladen.
That RPM has a few dependencies but all I wanted was the icons so I ignored them, had to copy the Crystal Icons folder from usr/lib/kde3/share/icons to opt/lib/kde3/share/icons to get it to work.
The screenshot was using the Mandrake 8.2 distribution so if anyone needs any pointers on getting HPL up and running on it let me know.

You don't need to install the rpm in order to get the icons. Just copy the rpms in some new directory, and extract the files:
rpm2cpio (rpmfile)| cpio -i --make-directories
Well you have to launch the menu editor of KDE (right click on the K and then on Menu editor) from there you can change the icon associated to the apps, i've noticed that you have to restart kde to see the change... at least I 've to do that maybe it's just my system ....
But what I am after is the icon that KPPP dislays in the Panel if you choose to dock it there. ie. the two red dots in the black box towards the right. It just doesn't fit well with the rest of the style.
Would maybe a blue like on the KDE box background for the title bar make it more to everyone's taste?
