Desktop Launcher in 11.10

Asked by clombard

OK...I give up...Every application I select to "Keep in Launcher" actually opens from the Launcher...EXCEPT...KONQUEROR.
Is there something I can do to get Konqueror to open from the side screen Launcher...it is a slight pain to have to
go to the Dash Home and open it...???
By the way 11.10 has the most "glitches" of any distribution of Ubuntu I have ever used.
Thank you.

Although it's a kde app try to create a .desktop file and move it to ~/.local/share/applications, in case view firefox.desktop (open with gedit) as template.
As an alternative try this.

Verify the .desktop file is listed in dconf-editor under:
desktop -> unity -> launcher

OK. I'll just wait for a fully working distro of Ubuntu to come out or an O/S that performs 100%.
Thank you.
