When installing applications such as firefox,thunderbird etc you need
to create a .desktop entry file in the /usr/share/applications folder.
In practice, however, there will be more editing, e.g.,
/usr/share/{application-registry,mime-info} to make things work
smoothly.
I have been debating if some explanation of this should be added to
the Sun Ray wiki - even though it isn't directly Sun Ray related.
One bright spot about CDE was availability of reasonably good printed
documentation directed to admins. Sun provides some docs on
configuring Gnome (and metacity, etc.), but it is not targeted to
admins. I'd love to hear a recommendation. Additions to the
wiki would be a welcomed step, however.
There is a Java Desktop System Administration Guide [1], which should
have these things. It certainly has chapters about installing
applications into menus, adding MIME types and adding desktop launchers.
