- WoW Menu Start
- Wednesday, September 12th, 2007 at 6:35:52am UTC
- Gnome menu icon
- ---------Directions-------------------------
- You can make a Gnome menu entry for WoW by doing the following commands in a terminal:
- wget http://kde-files.org/CONTENT/content-files/41569-wow-icon-scalable.svg
- sudo mv 41569-wow-icon-scalable.svg /usr/share/icons/
- gksudo gedit /usr/share/applications/wow.desktop
- Add this to the text editor window, which should have appeared after the third command, change <username> in the Exec= line to your computer login username, and save:
- [Desktop Entry]
- Encoding=UTF-8
- Name=World of Warcraft
- Name[hr]=World of Warcraft
- Exec=wine /home/<username>/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe
- Icon=41569-wow-icon-scalable.svg
- Terminal=false
- Type=Application
- Categories=Application;Game;
- StartupNotify=false
- Note: Remember that you should also edit the Exec= line to reflect your WoW installation path, if you've installed to a special location.
- ---------Dilemma-------------
- Problem is here:
- Exec=wine /home/<username>/.wine/drive_c/Program\ Files/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe
- I did not install the game with wine... i just copied from old windows installation. I can run the game just fine by going into its dir and running "wine WoW.exe"
- So how would I change the command?
- Exec=wine /home/<username>/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe
- or:
- Exec=wine /home/<username>/.wine/World\ of\ Warcraft/WoW.exe
- Thank you.
