Hi!
In Centos 5, when I add a launcher to the desktop, it doesn't allow me to choose an icon for the launcher. After creating it, right-click/properties also has no way to choose an icon. It seems to assign one itself, and the one i get looks like a small terminal window, or something.
How can I pick the icon for a desktop launcher myself?
My old Centos 4.5 installation allowed me to pick the icon. This seems to be a step backwards.
Tks!
Fred

When creating the launcher, click where it says "no icon" to select your icon.
Afterward, you can select "properties", then click on the icon where it appears on the Basic tab and select your icon.
Or you can manually edit the relevant .desktop file under ~/Desktop to point to the icon that you want.
