Most of the people who play games on our family computer do not want to have to press ALT-F2, and then type in "rocksndiamonds.sdl" in order to play a game like rocksndiamonds. All that's needed is to put something like the following into /usr/share/applications/[game name].desktop _______________ [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Rocks n Diamonds GenericName=Boulderdash Clone Comment=Boulderdash Clone Exec=rocksndiamonds.sdl Icon=keditbookmarks Terminal=false Type=Application Categories=SDL;Game;ArcadeGame StartupNotify=false _______________ Because of the wonderful new XDG menu standard, this entry should appear in every desktop (but for now I think it's just KDE and GNOME). Of course, for most games, you would also need to include an icon (instead of using a KDE one as I did in the example) Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. emerge bzflag 2. try to find BZFlag in the KDE menu Actual Results: BZFlag is not shown Expected Results: BZflag should be found in Menu > Games > Arcade > BZ flag Using kde.
