Icons not working #181

Open forReason opened 2 weeks ago

forReason commented 2 weeks ago

I'm on ubuntu 24.04 and ever since I used the Liquorix kernel, a lot of my system icons seem broken. This includes many icons for buttons: Screenshot from 2024-08-31 12-58-41 Screenshot from 2024-08-31 13-00-06 and application icons: Screenshot from 2024-08-31 12-59-24

furthermore, I dont know if its related, the Dark mode does not work anymore for most system applications. Most annoyingly, nautilus: Screenshot from 2024-08-31 13-01-29

any idea why that is?

I'm not really sure how to investigate this issue, my suspicion is that this is a race condition in Gnome and Liquorix exploits it by having an alternative scheduler.

By race condition, I mean things load out of order when they're threaded, and the assumptions the software makes are wrong but happen to be ok when using mainline.

Maybe open a bug report with Gnome and see where it goes? This won't be an easy bug to fix since it will require someone with understanding of multithreading, locking, races, etc.
