Did you modify the Path and Exec lines to correspond to your installation location?
Yes. Full path. Doesn't give any error, just no ghidra window ever appears. I'm on Ubuntu 18.04 LTS. I even tried to get my shortcut to run a terminal window then made a custom terminal window copy to call ghidra. Still no luck. If you have any other ideas, that would be great. Thanks for the response. Ed.

Thanks!
The ghidra icon I had at support/ghidra.ico was a mess, but after I replaced it with some random ico from the internet, it looks good now :)
Awesome, glad you got it working!
Thanks!

@lucidBrot That's because Eye of GNOME (Image Viewer in Ubuntu) and, probably by extension, GNOME Shell misread the image as a 128×128 image whereas it is actually a 256×256 image. Converting it into another format using XnView MP works though.
Thanks m8 🙌

I tried this on Ubuntu 18.04. My ghidra folder lives at /home/ubuntu/ghidra/ghidra_9.1.2_PUBLIC
The script for "ghidraRun" is in that folder - so I edited the names to Path and Exec for my setup.
When I double-click the desktop shortcut, it appears that nothing happens. If I change the Exec name to "ghidraRunx" is recognizes the error. Not sure why it won't start? Maybe because the ghidraRun script can't resolve the path it is in? I've tried looking on linux forums for how to set up desktop shortcuts, but no luck yet. This is one area where linux needs to improve, IMO. Thanks in advance.
