[enlightenment][e17] Application icons not/partial rendered

[Rexilion]

So, I installed a new Gentoo. Got rid of the old partition layout and moving forward with lvm2 + custom initrd. Got rid of multilib and now using an Ubuntu 32bit chroot with sudo magic (i.e. Office 2007). I managed to fix/workaround every hick-up or 'feature' new in this install. I even managed to help fix some ebuilds with hidden/missing dependency's. So overall, this endeavour has been quite productive. However,

Enlightenment seems to be rather picky at what to render (0.17.3). Some screenshots of my shelf and e start menu will clarify:

Top bar:

The gaps should contain icons of applications. Clicking on these gaps opens the application just fine.

Menu:

Below is an example of weird behaviour. Some icons do display on mouse over (see top bar):

Anyone else experiencing this?

Set an icon theme inside enlightenment. Settings -> Look -> Application theme -> Icons

Tried that too. I also played with the tick buttons below. If both are disabled, I get the most icons. If I enable either one, many more icons will dissappear making matters worse.

If I enable both tick boxes, then all the icons in the top bar appear for a very short moment and then disappear. Then I only have the icons for qmmp and qalculate-gtk.

I tried Faenza and gnome-icon-theme. Nothing new showed up in ~/.xsession-errors.

:/

Oh right. Try some non-svg icon theme. I am using KFaenza that renders pretty well. Alternatively, try to install evas-generic-loaders which will pull in a svg renderer. I must warn that it is slow because it uses librsvg.

Yes! Kfaenza did the trick. However, I want to ask about your suggestion to install evas-generic loaders. Two points:

- Where do I find it? Is is in the enlightenment overlay?
- media-libs/evas has all the USE-flags relating to image formats, including svg. How come this is not sufficient?

Thank you! I must have searched for evas-generic-loaders (sorry!).

Since the old svg loader is apparently slow, I'll stick with this one. Thank you for time and help. You saved me quite some frustration.

Eix is nice. But I would prefer to use:
