[chirp_users] Desktop icon
Hi
I have wondered about where and what file is the icon for the app? I have created a launcher as I have done before but don't now have the icon for Chirp. I actually am not real sure if it is in the correct place either. I got on the Chirp web site and followed the instructions for setting up the PPA but didn't see anything on the desktop, so I created one after finding what looks like the App in I think /usr/share sub directories. Is this correct or is there a better way?

You've not told us what version of linux you're running or what desktop environment you are in. That makes it hard to help you. However, the process for getting a launcher built on your system is really a linux-usage question and not CHIRP-specific.
Hi Dan
Actually I have it working I just don't know what the icon is to look for which is what my question was, or what I intended it to be. The Linux is xubuntu which I thought I mentioned maybe not. I followed the instructions to set up for the PPA from the web site and I didn't see anything on my system. In the past I have seen the Icon on the desktop show up fine.
