Open your desktop file virtualbox.desktop
via
sudo nano /usr/share/applications/virtualbox.desktop
and have a look at the line
Icon=…
In my case
Icon=virtualbox
This means, if your current icon theme has an icon with the name virtualbox.*
, eg in my case
% find /usr/share/icons/Numix-Circle/ -iname 'virtualbox.*'
/usr/share/icons/Numix-Circle/48x48/apps/virtualbox.svg
than the icon of the theme is displayed. And maybe it does not look the way you want.
But the package virtualbox-5.0
comes with a bunch of icons:
List the icons with:
dpkg -L virtualbox-5.0 | grep /usr/share/icons
and change your desktop file. I recommend this version:
Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/virtualbox.svg
