My computer icon

[Scott_Swinyard]

Somewhere around the time I updated from Kde 4.8 to 4.9 I lost the My Computer icon on the desktop. I tried making a new one buy creating a new launcher with the url “system:/” but it didn’t work. When attempting to open that from within Konqueror by navigating to the desktop and clicking the icon it gave a response that said it was an unknown protocol.

I’m sure that was the url that always used to work when I would bullocks things up and delete it or something. Is it being gone normal in 12.1 in 4.9 or have I screwed something up again?

What I did to update was to remove all the old openSUSE 4.8 repos, replace with 4.9 and told Yast to switch system packages.

Everything else seems to be fine.

try sysinfo:/

oh.

First I put sysinfo:/ into the name field and System (which is what I named it) into the url. After that didn’t work there I was sitting there staring at it thinking, “D***” I was sure that was right.

Thanks.
