look at the firefox icon ...

I have switched to rawhide recently. For the first time desktop effects
work on my notebook thanks to the intel 2.9 driver...

But switching through the minimized applications the gnome applications
look horrible as the have a pixeled icon. The KDE apps look way better.

There are better icons as the desktop icons look clear even when
enlarged.

AFAIK X allows windows to pass icons in several sizes to the WM.

This has to be fixed at the app level I think.  moving to firefox.

The gnome-desktop component is for a small library called
libgnomedesktop that is used to get wallpaper and monitor settings

screenshot of gnome-shell with Alt-TAB switching

Surprisingly icon is pretty good in gnome-shell.

Is it because we don't have SVG icon of Firefox, and KDE tried poorly to
scale bitmap icon?

bradford:~$ locate firefox.svg

Just to clarify. The screenshot I attached is from gnome 2.28 with desktop effects turned on. It is not KDE.

bug #451904 has pretty similar content for emacs.

To see the icons that a program offers, one can use xprop. 
Looking at the output Firefox offers 16x16, 32x32 and 48x48 icon while ksnapshot offers 16x16, 32x32, 64x64 and 128x128 icons.

This message is a reminder that Fedora 12 is nearing its end of life.
Approximately 30 (thirty) days from now Fedora will stop maintaining
and issuing updates for Fedora 12.  It is Fedora's policy to close all
bug reports from releases that are no longer maintained.  At that time
this bug will be closed as WONTFIX if it remains open with a Fedora 
'version' of '12'.

Package Maintainer: If you wish for this bug to remain open because you
plan to fix it in a currently maintained version, simply change the 'version' 
to a later Fedora version prior to Fedora 12's end of life.

Bug Reporter: Thank you for reporting this issue and we are sorry that 
we may not be able to fix it before Fedora 12 is end of life.  If you 
would still like to see this bug fixed and are able to reproduce it 
against a later version of Fedora please change the 'version' of this 
bug to the applicable version.  If you are unable to change the version, 
please add a comment here and someone will do it for you.

Although we aim to fix as many bugs as possible during every release's 
lifetime, sometimes those efforts are overtaken by events.  Often a 
more recent Fedora release includes newer upstream software that fixes 
bugs or makes them obsolete.

The process we are following is described here: 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/BugZappers/HouseKeeping

Fedora 12 changed to end-of-life (EOL) status on 2010-12-02. Fedora 12 is

If you can reproduce this bug against a currently maintained version of 
Fedora please feel free to reopen this bug against that version.

Thank you for reporting this bug and we are sorry it could not be fixed.
