My local version looks like this - [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Iceweasel <snip>other language versions of "Name=" </snip> Comment=Browse the World Wide Web <snip>other language versions of "Comment=" </snip> GenericName=Web Browser <snip>other language versions of "GenericName=" </snip> X-GNOME-FullName=Iceweasel Web Browser <snip>other language versions of "X-GNOME-FullName=" </snip> Exec=iceweasel %u Terminal=false X-MultipleArgs=false Type=Application Icon=iceweasel Categories=Network;WebBrowser; MimeType=text/html;text/xml;application/xhtml+xml;application/xml;application/vn d.mozilla.xul+xml;application/rss+xml;application/rdf+xml;image/gif;image/jpeg;i mage/png;x-scheme-handler/http;x-scheme-handler/https; StartupWMClass=Firefox-bin StartupNotify=true Other than the titles (which I'm assuming is in the snip section of your post), the only difference I saw is that iceweasel is started with '%u' where yours does not. Also, is that a .local form of the desktop file or is it being stored somewhere else (if the local and installed versions are different, the local file takes precedence afaik). -- Regards Jack Boston Tea Party, Coercive Acts, Powder Alarm, Revolution Lessons (Mistakes) not learned are bound to be repeated. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
