As a guess you would use a root text editor to edit /usr/share/applications/thunderbird.desktop and change the Icon line to the correct address of the TB icon. On my system this is /usr/share/pixmaps/thunderbird.png so mine would look like this;
In actual fact mine just says
And it works perfectly well, so you could try that as well.
Code: Select all
Icon=/usr/share/pixmaps/thunderbird.png
Code: Select all
Icon=thunderbird

Thanks for your help.

Re: Thunderbird icon in LM Cinnamon 13
I'm asking you to
I have even shown you what the edit should look like when it is done. I don't know how to make it any clearer than that, so you will have to explain to me what is causing you the difficulty. It is probably just a language problem so don't worry about it, just tell me what you don't get.use a root text editor to edit /usr/share/applications/thunderbird.desktop and change the Icon line to the correct address of the TB icon

Sorry. I have not explained my problem clearly enough. Is not the "icon" but the "icon in the panel" (systray?) what does not appear: Best,viking777 wrote:I'm asking you to

Aha, that is a different matter. I will have a think about that and get back to you if I come up with something.
Re: Thunderbird icon in LM Cinnamon 13
Have you got the panel launchers applet enabled in the panel? Right click the panel and click 'Add applets to Panel' choose the 'Panel Launchers' applet. When this appears you only have to right click on any start menu item (such as thunderbird) and select 'Add to panel', it will then appear.

Thanks Viking. What it does work was adding to Thunderbird the complement MinTrayR.viking777 wrote:Have you got the panel launchers applet enabled in the panel?
