Can't create a launcher in Gnome2.4

[Nelis Lamprecht]

Hi,

I don't seem to be able to create a launcher now that I have upgraded to
2.4. I can create folders no problem in both Naultilus and on my
desktop. When I left click in Nautilus and run "Create Launcher" the
window pops up and I can fill in all the details but it doesn't create
the actual link or icon. If I right-click on my desktop and go to
"Create Launcher" I don't even get the window, I get nothing.

I did follow the instructions on
http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/docs/faq2.html to have FAM and LAME
enabled.

Any ideas ?

Regards,
Nelis
