NOTABUG, then?

Yes, we can do that. If someone else has the same problem, this bug report is still available ;-)
(and it's also possible to add a section on our wiki ;-) => http://www.glx-dock.org/ww_page.php?p=Recurrents%20problems&lang=en )

Title:
  gnome-settings-daemon necessary to have icons

Status in Cairo-Dock : Core:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I was using cairo-dock in a bare openbox session (no GNOME/KDE) and
  many of the icons in various plug-ins were broken (ok so maybe that is
  a bug report which should go in cairo-dock-plug-ins then, but since it
  happened all over the place, I was unsure if this is not rather a core
  issue.

  For instance in the attached image, you can see that all icons in
  shortcuts are question-mark icons instead of usual partition/folder
  icons. In the Applications Menu plug-ins, they would be ugly red-
  crossed "no icon" icon.

  But if I run `gnome-settings-daemon &` in my autostart script *before*
  I run cairo-dock, then I have nice icons in shortcuts/Applications
  Menu (and even the application menu icon itself would change to the
  Mint icon for some reason).

  Why is that? Can't you run cairo-dock without some minimum of GNOME
  running (or KDE or other, I have not tried if it fixes the issue
  there) and have nice-looking icons? It would be nice to have a nice-
  looking system, even without any desktop environment running in
  background. :-)
