I have just installed Java and LimeWire onto my Mandrake 10.0 system, however the only way a can launch LimeWire is by opening a terminal and typing limewire. When i close the terminal windows LimeWire closes as well.

I have add the application to the Menu-Drake application, and no matter what i put in the command field it won't launch the program. I have tried the following
limewire
/usr/lib/LimeWire/limewire

Even if i put open in terminal, it will not open.

I was just wondering is there something that needs to be added to the attribute & value fields.

(Installed Mandrake 10.0 a week ago and I'm lovin it)

Thanks

If you want to run it from the konsole, just put an ampersand after it.

For instance..

That will start limewire in the background... you can then close the konsole and limewire will remain open.

You are creating a wrong shortcut, it supposed to be /usr/lib/LimeWire/LimeWire. The best thing is to do,

#ln -s /usr/lib/LimeWire/LimeWire /usr/bin/limewire

This will start limewire if you just type "limewire" or create a shortcut with just the name "limewire" as the command.

thanks all it needed was the &, cheers
