I am trying to create a desktop entry for Lightscribe SimpleLabeler to add it to my Applications menu in Fedora 12. However, I can’t seem to get the "Exec=" line to work. I realize this is a novice question, but what do I put in that field, and how do I find it?
This IS a Linux version of the software. The software is NOT the issue, simply creating a desktop entry for the program IS.

What type of application software that are compatible with windows and linux

i have a linux server, what is the easiest way (language) to build a website?
i think PHP is an overkill, any other idea?

the website should work over SSL and have nice forms, but not so complicated.
any suggestion?

the only important thing is the webpage should be able to run applications on the server.

What’s a good webcam that I can use right out of the box in Ubuntu Linux for applications such as Skype, VLC, and also chatting websites?

I’ve chosen Computer Science instead of Music, so I need a cheap but useful comouter for programming (an older OS would do (no older than Windows 98)). It requires serial ports and some USBs would not hurt either. It would also need to be able to run 2 pertitions because I will require Linux too.

Thx!
Laptop prefered.

I want to listen to the same music at the same time with 2 computers in my LAN. One is running Linux, the other one Windows XP. So I thought it would be the best to set up server on the linux pc and setup a stream to the other pc. But I don’t know how to do that. What application do you recommend me? Should be easy (fast) to configure. Is this possible without a delay, anyway?

I’m thinking in migrate from Windows to a Linux operating system… But the main problem to do it is the Linux applications, which I don’t know very well. Could you tell/recommend some applications to me?
I need a good image editor (like Corel Draw and Photoshop in Windows);
A good media player (like Windows Media Player);
A good download manager (like Free Download Manager in Windows);
A nice media converter (like FormatFactory for Windows);
And a nice sound editor.
Those kind of applications are the ones which I use more, so, I need them.
And could you tell me what is your favorite Linux distro too?
Thanks, and sorry for spelling and grammar mistakes.
* With download manager, I meant an application for download common files from web, like music and other suff.

I like to keep my programs and drivers up to date, but manually checking is a pain and some programs have an upgrade notifier, but not all, and the ones that do take up resources. I like how Linux distros have something like this, but have nothing like this for Windows!
There actually IS something "magic" like that for just drivers…works for pretty uncommon drivers as well, but its free version limits you to two downloads a day.
It’s called DriverMax.
