If all that works, could you post the .desktop file that gets a failure?

Sure:

[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Encoding=UTF-8
Name=Spout
GenericName=
Comment=
Icon=spout.xpm
Exec=/usr/games/spout
Terminal=false
Categories:Application:Game:ArcadeGame

I think the problem is the Categories line, which should read:

Categories=Application;Game;ArcadeGame

that is with an equal-sign after Categories, and semi-colons between the entries, instead of colons...

Could you try 2 things?

1. change the Categories line to the correct format

2. mv the sprout.desktop(?) out of your applications folder

 and see if either or both of those fixes the problem.

Thanks,

Matthew
