Ok I figured out the issue. Thanks for your help. Xeyes doesn't have an
associated .desktop file. Unity uses .desktop files to launch
applications, so it doesn't find the .desktop file and fails to launch.
** Summary changed:
- launcher won't launch apps originally launched from commandline
+ launcher won't launch apps without desktop files
** Changed in: unity
