Thanks for the clarification. You apparently overlooked the part in
my original message that said I used the KDE automatic menu update.
>From the Main Menu - All Applications portion choose:
Settings
Menu Updating Tool
Scan
It will then scan your system and display everything it finds. It
will find tbird and firefox. From there you check off anything you
want added to the menu and click OK (or whatever it is that make it
do it).
After that, everything you chose to be added will be added (in
the appropriate section mind you as it discovers everything it
needs).
After it is added to the main menu, I then right click on the item
in the menu and one of the choices is 'copy link to desktop'. You
can do this if you want a real slick icon and desktop access to an
app.
Hopefully, this clears things up. Note this has nothing to do at
all with TBird or Firefox installation. That is why I mentioned that
I didn't install the icons and stuff during the TBird and Firefox
installation, because KDE makes it all happen for you.
