I installed indicator-cpufreq
but it doesn't work with the Faenza icon theme. Is there a way to make the indicator use the icon from the ubuntu-mono-dark
icon theme?

Goto the installed icon folder (
.icon
in home folder if you installed for current user)Open
index.theme
file in gedit or any text editor.In
inherit
field put the backup icon theme name at front.
An example
Inherits=ubuntu-mono-dark,gnome,hicolor
So the line means, if no icon found in this icon-theme, search in ubuntu-mono-dark
, if not available in ubuntu-mono-dark searach icon in gnome
, if not available in gnome set take from hicolor

It worked perfectly but i just edited the index.theme on /usr/share/icons/Faenza . And i'm sorry for the late answer. :)– hfa2010Feb 12, 2013 at 21:46
If you installed the icon theme using a package (into /usr/share/icons/
) or you don't want to modify the original theme, you can create a mono version by copying the folder /usr/share/icons/ubuntu-mono-dark
into the .icons
folder in your home folder. Rename it to what ever you want, such as faenza-mono-dark
.
Then, in the folder you just copied, open up the index.theme
file and edit these lines
Name=Ubuntu-Mono-Dark
Comment=Smooth modern theme designed to be intuitive.
Inherits=Humanity-Dark,gnome,hicolor
To look like this:
Name=Faenza-Mono-Dark
Comment=Smooth modern theme designed to be intuitive.
Inherits=Faenza,gnome,hicolor
What this does is create a new icon theme which adds the dark icons found in ubuntu-mono-dark
to the Faenza icon theme.
