go to terminal as SU
type chmod a+x /whereever/the file/is hit enter
this gives everyone execute permission for the file

in Mandrake right click on the desktop and choose "create link to application"
click on the gear icon and choose a new icon (the opera browser has them in it's folder) type in a name (Opera)

select the execute tab and type in the path to the execute file
example /usr/bin/opera-i686-yada_yada/opera
click OK and voila you have a desktop short cut
