Linux_Fan Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 Hello, Recently I installed Mozilla 1.5 on mine LM 9.2. Now, I want to put Mozilla in the program list or menu of KDE. I started Menudrake, created a new folder and tried to add an application to it. One should fill in a title (e.g. Navigator or Mozilla) and a command. In the last entry I filled in: mozilla; that's the file to start Mozilla. After I saved it I go in the KDE-menu to the menu item for running Mozilla. But when I select Mozilla nothing happens. So my question is 'how can I add an application to the KDE-menu or program list using menudrake?' Another question is 'How can I create a icon to my desktop for starting the application?'

chris z Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 you have to put the complete path to the app. for example, instead of just putting "mozilla", you should make it look like /usr/lib/mozilla, or where ever the path to the mozilla executable resides in your installation.

Linux_Fan Posted February 5, 2004 Author Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 I will try this. But can someone tell me how to place an icon (link) of the application on the desktop? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyme Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 right click on the desktop and choose "add link" or "add application" or something to that effect (my memory is fuzzy, i stopped using desktop icons a while ago). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris z Posted February 5, 2004 Report Share Posted February 5, 2004 to add to what tyme said, you can do the same thing to add shortcuts to your kicker bar if you like. right click on the bar, choose "add", choose the appropriate selection to add (application, link, device, etc), & it will add it to the kicker. to move it, right click again & choose "move". a crosshairs arrow will appear & you can drag it to the location you like.
