the NetBeans project doesn't release anything packaged as compressed tar at the moment. Since you mentioned that you can launch NB from CLI but not from the ubuntu start menu, it likely means that either the package was broken or you have two versions of NB installed right now - one from the ubuntu repo (which must be very old) and one which you installed manually. long story short: the easiest way to fix this is to uninstall NB again until its gone from the start menu and also doesn't launch from CLI. Then you grab the .deb from https://netbeans.apache.org/download/nb25/ and install it. (or you pick one of the community installers which bundle a recent JDK with NB in one package) best regards, michael > > Perhaps I forgot something simple, but it appears that I cannot lock the > facility to start NB from the Ubuntu taskbar that comes out from the left of > screen like I could with NB 18; I can only start it from a CLI. > > I would like to start NB 24 from the Ubuntu taskbar.
