I can't say this is update-related. It started a few days ago in-between updates.

Question: how do I get rid of this new Question Mark icon in Raven Notification?

My disposition on this is the complete opposite of 'pressing' or 'concerning', so thanks.

Most likely, the icon theme you're using either doesn't have an icon for it, or it's somehow broken.

    been this way ^^ for months.

    sudo eopkg check =no broken packages

    maybe play with themes later?

    adwaita then arc then a reboot did not improve anything.
    the ? mark is a mystery; a new wrinkle.
    really dislike it.
    another weird one.
    I guess we will keep this one a mystery (says the mystery question markπŸ˜‰.)

    Yeah, this happens even with Papirus (which should be one of the most complete icon sets).
    The network-manager-applet changelog mentions a view notification tweaks, but I'm unsure which of those could've affected the icon

      you are right it looks like nothing in the update changes...unless Raven uses libnotify (now ^ swapped out) icons for the Raven Notifications?

        brent unless Raven uses libnotify (now ^ swapped out) icons for the Raven Notifications

        That's... not a thing. icons are named, and when getting an icon, GTK does the things to get the right one, falling back to an unknown icon if one with that name isn't found. Budgie (and thus Raven) only try to get the icon we're told by the notification to get, according to the Freedesktop notification spec.

          EbonJaeger in the vernacular of american football, my libnotify icon question was a 'hail mary' for sure and thanks for getting back on itπŸ™‚.
          I've noticed this long with solus that these things always work themselves out and most times I wake up, boot up, and poof problem is gone somewhere down the line.

          Staudey later today will monkey with Papirus and more themes and hopefully I can stick a 'solved' on this.

          Could never solve this one but this is eye-opening.
          Bare-metaled endeavour os budgie onto my spare drive because their cinnamon was eh.....
          ...the Riddle of the Missing Network Manager Raven Icon is not limited to Solus--Behold a Pale Placeholder.
          (FYI: papirus)

          behold stock budgie endeavour qogir:

          all the placeholder Network Manager pics not related to Solus but DE-exclusive.
          Again, I care not at all. Just observing.

            That notification shouldn't even be stored in Raven to begin with, come to think of it... It's supposed to ignore notifications from nm-applet. Betting something changed upstream in network-manager-applet...

            I also have the papirus version of this, BTW. going to read the other posts. So it's just a non full iconset falling to its default icon when not having the specified one? (a tiny, very minor issue)

            BTW, did you also noticed being unable to shut off notification on that regard? (as was told, probably an old upstream issue. Both by itself are minor OFC I hope not other effects we can't see. But just curious. No idea when and how it happened. It's a relatively newly installed system I have)

              [deleted] it's funny you mention that I don't remember getting Network Manager Raven notifications before. maybe a budgie-settings update ticked the box? or my memory sucks. either way I am taking your advice....

              ...but when I disable the raven notification it simultaneously disables the brief desktop popup which I've come to rely on over the years for piece of mind so I will live with the Raven and its absent icon. Thanks for the reply.

                brent I go check if something was changed (this bug I was told about, which I was told is an upstream bug, does not affect all allegedly) and if I can disable the notification, since I couldn't before.

                May later update and if I will find the link given by Ebon Jaeger to me to look then when reported on channel, I'll add that link as well πŸ™‚ Thank you very much.

                Just to clarify any misunderstanding in my previous post's phrasing: I wasn't the one who found about the existence of the upstream old issue and found a link to it, it was Ebon Jaeger πŸ™‚

                Looks like notification is strange for me. since all were off and I had popup and network notification "bandaid/rectangle", I set those on 1st all, and rebooted. This had caused the notification on raven itself to disappear, while preserving the rectangle/bandaid notification.

                I then set all off and restarted, state stayed the same. (as said, Ebon Jaeger said it's likely an upstream bug he showed me a link to. I don't remember his exact words.)
                This is the upstream bug: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/network-manager-applet/-/issues/181
                I go restart just in case, (kept pressing don't show this message again up to now, up to now to no avail. But, it's minor, and allegedly upstream πŸ™‚)

                  [deleted] thanks for all the research and reporting. at they very end here you conclude with 'minor' and that is where I'm at, too. Appreciate it.
