Public bug reported: If I put a launcher on the desktop with the command "vmplayer vmware/CsProject/Windows\ XP\ Professional.vmx" it works as it should but if I make a copy of that item and puts it in a Gnome Drawer applet it doesn't work from there.
A hotfix is to alter the file to not contain spaces so it can be started with "vmplayer vmware/CsProject/WindowsXPProfessional.vmx". Then it works from the drawer applet. Im running edgy. ** Affects: gnome-applets (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Launcher in Gnome Drawer doesn't support spaces https://launchpad.net/bugs/75440 -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
