Ok, I assume you are using dCore-trusty, I will mail you a dCore-trusty.gz with reverting of the recent changes but for the sce-update ones that would not affect it.  Please test, if it fixes it, I will make these changes the next RC.

Please test the same download link sent in PM, this is with the changes reverted but for sce-update in recent weeks and let me know if the icons appear now.

There was an apparent glitch in the repacking in the last upload mentioned, as the errors you mention are not there now.

FWIW I see the exact same behavior in the latest current RC as I do with the dCore-trusty in the link I mailed, both have freshly updated SCEs and do not show the usb icon on the desktop in e20.

Ok.  Rather than spend an open ended amount of time troubleshooting the new changes, I will revert them to what we know works and has been the same since the beginning.  As there is also no way to know what else may be also broken by the new RC.  I will revert tonight.

So the rc just before the group file edit showed the icons?  If so I will revert the file change, just wanting to pinpoint it

That's great news, the latest rc is hopefully a keeper.

Hi
correction:
Booting with user=jls and having /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow in my backup makes usb not appear, , while still booting with user=jls but without the 2 mentioned file in mydata icons appear

Ok, may be a user or group problem.  Can you post the contents of your backed up /etc/passwd and /etc/shadow?

You should've removed your password hashes, now someone can brute-force them.
