Hi, when I use X forward over ssh to run qt5 applications on another computer icons do not show. Attached is an example of what I see.
As an example when I open System Setting (systemsettings5) the categories do not show any icon. The same happens in applications like kontact or kpat (cards game). As far as I can see a pattern the problem only occurs with qt5 and not with qt4 applications.
Interestingly I notice that after updating to Fedora 24 (pre-alpha) I see some icons (coming from gnome themes?).
Another issue that is related is that if I run lyx-2.2 compiled with the qt5 backend and in the preferences I choose "Use icons from system's theme" then most of the icons are gone as well.
Is there any workaround?
Regards,

you are lucky when it works at all
here at least KDE applications are no longer working with x-forwarding, konqueror, kate and what not else just stucks, gtk applications are still working
the same for xvnc on display 0 which goes so far that when a client connects the local screen is switched off and never comes back

try setting KDE_FULL_SESSION=true in remote environment, to treat it as if it were run inside a kde/plasma session.
Alternatively, does the remote environment have kf5-frameworkintegration installed? that's what provides KDEPlatformTheme.so plugin

Yes, kf5-frameworkintegration is installed and yes setting KDE_FULL_SESSION=true fixed those issues when running via ssh.
Thank you. :-)
