Thanks for you  quick answer. I double checked that I was not involved
in this particular bug report, so now I have an excuse for not
remembering!

Title:
  Lyx 1.6.1 icon replacement strangeness

Status in lyx package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: lyx

  Low Importance Regression / Feature Request
  Ubuntu 8.10
  Lyx 1.6.1

  Lyx stores *.png icons for toolbars and dialogs in
  /usr/share/lyx/images. These icons can be overridden by placing new
  icons in ~/.lyx/images (or directly replacing the ones in
  /usr/share/lyx/images). Changing Lyx's appearance to match the rest of
  the desktop is important to me since the default icons are, I'm sorry,
  quite unbearably ugly.

  For some reason, the icons on the math panels, the icons on the TOC
  sidebar, and the banner.png start splash cannot be replaced. Even
  after deleting the image files, they keep being displayed. The .png
  files are completely ignored, it seems as if they are somehow
  hardcoded into an executable, or are stored in a mysterious location
  that I am unable to find (although the .deb package clearly says that
  there are no icon files stored elsewhere).

  This is a regression from the Lyx version of Hardy Heron, where all
  *.xpm images could be replaced correctly (the regression might be
  connected to the switch from .xpm to .png images). If they are linked
  into an executable or library, please fix this.

  1) Where are these images stored?

  2) How can they be replaced?

  Any help is greatly appreciated.
