How to add "optirun" to icon in menu?

[CreamCorn]

Mint 14 with Cinnamon 1.6 and Bumblebee 3.0.

Some programs, like Singularity, run better from terminal if I run it like this:

Code: Select all

optirun ./singularity

When I look at the Cinnamon Menu, the command to start Singularity looks like:

Code: Select all

/opt/Singularity-x86_64-1.7.3.3624/singularity

How can I add the "optirun" to the start command in the Cinnamon menu, so that programs like Singularity, Heroes of Newerth, Firestorm, Blender, Free CAD, Second Life, 0 A.D. etc can run with Bumblebee?

Thanks!

Open a terminal, type:

Code: Select all

which optirun

It will return the full path of the optirun program. Copy that. Then right-click the menu button and choose edit menu. Then browse to to program you want to start with optirun from the menu, and highlight it, then click the properties button. Insert the full path of the optirun program in the command field. So if the command currently reads:

Code: Select all

/opt/Singularity-x86_64-1.7.3.3624/singularity

change that to:

Code: Select all

/where/ever/is/optirun /opt/Singularity-x86_64-1.7.3.3624/singularity
