Restore original notification icons after uninstalling Xfce
I am using Ubuntu 12.04 with Gnome Classic environment.
I wanted to try Xfce, so I installed the metapackage xfce4. In the end, I was not convinced so I removed it and came back on Gnome Classic.
The problem is, even though I removed the xfce4 package, it seems a lot of things are still installed, and some modifications have been made.
Some default apps have been changed (Thunar replaced Nautilus as default app), but I could change this.
But how do I revert to the original notification icons instead of these:
I went into System Settings > Appearance, changed the theme, but the ugly icons are still used for notifications.
P.S.: My question might also be: how to make sure the metapackage xfce4 has been removed totally?
