Jeremy,
The Linux install was recently upgraded. ?See?
I recommend you use the Linux text editor instead of LibreOffice Writer.

Subject: [jmriusers] Installation of JMRI on Ubuntu 22.04
Date: Monday, May 01, 2023 12:08 PM
I am following the Guide for installation of JMRI on UBUNTU 22.04. It has all gone successfully, until the last step. I can run PanelPro and Decoder Pro from the command line but I would like to have desktop icons.
I have followed the procedure to create the active Icons for both Panel Pro and Decoder Pro. However, neither of them work. I get the error message "This desktop file has errors, or points to a program without permissions. It cannot be executed." All the files, the desktop text files and the "Exec" files are all executable.
I created the desktop files in LibreOffice Writer and saved the files as .txt files.? I then removed the .txt at the end of the name. Is there more I need to do to these text files?
Thank you.
Jeremy
