Hello-
Everythings been running fine. Ran the last update and now I dont have any shortcuts to start up the program. [ it was under the K menu / Internet / More Programs].
So now I have to open a shell window and start it manually - then have two windows running all the time.
Is there a way to create a shortcut (like it was) so I can one-click to start up??
thanks for your help,

Just open konqueror and point it to where amule executable is.....then click left side mousse button and drop it on your desktop...a little pop up window appears....finaly click create link.....then u are done...except the icon ....
I can assume that you know how to change the icon.....
Cheers....

Ok - never assume...
I'm fairly new to Linux. But none the less, I tried dragging the file to the desktop and making the link on the desktop. When I do this - and attempt to use it - I then get a dialog box that wants to know what application to use?
I have tried browsing and pointing it back to /usr/bin/aMule - with no success.
But when I open Konquer and go to /usr/bin/aMule and click on it - the programs starts fine.
So I'm not sure what's wrong.
thanks for your help

Try to right-click on desktop ==>Create New=>Link to application and choose the amule executable....
Hope it helps....
Cheers....

It worked perfect when you create the link, starting from the desktop.
Thanks Again

Hey...glad to help....although my understanding of kde is a bit low.... :))
I have been build some rpms for mandrake and i couldn´t quite understand why it does not put an entry in the kde menu....Oh well....nothing is perfect especially in linux....a thought you must never forget....quite frustrating sometimes.... :D
Cheers....
