Hi all, after reading Olaf description I tried the following:
1.- create a new directory in /usr/share/applications/ the name is not important I called mine 'others'. You need to be root for this: 'sudo mkdir /usr/share/applications/<dirname>' 2.- move all .desktop files in /usr/share/applications/ to this new directory: 'sudo mv /usr/share/applications/*.desktop /usr/share/applications/<dirname>' 3.- restart kde After logging in the problem has dissapeared for me. I can add firefox to the favourites and the panel. I don't know if this workaround has any side effects, so maybe somebody with more knowledge than me in Kubuntu file system can tell. -- kubuntu kde4 intrepid kickoff menu, items added to favorites dont keep correct icon, generic gear shown https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/254688 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
