There's an applet worked on to show the desktop icons in Plasma, it just hasn't made it into kdebase-workspace or extragear-plasma yet: http://websvn.kde.org/trunk/playground/base/plasma/applets/desktop/ That could be one solution. But having it also in favorites menu would be good, IMHO. I've tried to copy that file manually into the favourites menu file but that doesn't work either. I'll try to figure out which of my older live images still work (related to bug #422061) and try to reproduce my steps. AFAIR the menu file (I don't actual remember the name) would be overwritten by some other process during startup. Ok. I've found a bootable live image and was also able to put liveinst.desktop in the menu file. I've just put a short script in livecd-fedora-kde.ks to create a /home/fedora/.kde/share/config/kickoffrc with the content: # add liveinst.desktop to favorites menu mkdir -p /home/fedora/.kde/share/config/ cat > /home/fedora/.kde/share/config/kickoffrc << MENU_EOF [Favorites] FavoriteURLs=/usr/share/applications/kde4/konqbrowser.desktop,/usr/share/applications/kde4/dolphin.desktop,/usr/share/applications/liveinst.desktop MENU_EOF chown -R fedora:fedora /home/fedora/.kde/share/ I will leave this bug open until I'm really able to test this (related to bug #422061). Apparently, the reason the desktop plasmoid in playground is no longer being worked on is that they're adding support for desktop icons to the default Plasma desktop, see: http://dot.kde.org/1197405276/1197441103/1197514113/ http://lists.kde.org/?l=kde-panel-devel&m=119735028308801&w=2 So we'll just have to wait a bit and then it will be just a setting to enable in kde-settings (it'll be off by default upstream). Sounds good! We will see how usuable it is. With kde-4.0.0 packages there is also an icon on the desktop. But I'm not sure how it gets there. /home/fedora/Desktop/liveinst.desktop is present but I'm not copying it there. However. I'm closing this bug because problem is fixed. |
