Lazarus icon on desktop has lost its cheetah icon (replaced with paper page icon).

[Peter Williams]

Hi All,

This is only a minor bug... but it's annoying. Previously, when I was using
Lazarus 0.9.24 beta (weeks ago now) I had Lazarus in my Kmenu / Development
menu with a cheetah icon. Now, after following Mattias's instructions (a few
weeks back) I have Lazarus 0.9.25 beta installed {thank you, Mattias :-) }
and it seems to be working pretty well. However, the kmenu / Development /
Lazarus programming language menu item (both in the kmenu & the link on my
desktop) have lost the cheetah icon and instead they display a very boring
icon which looks a bit like a white piece of paper. (see attached file... it
was created from doing a snapshot of my screen then cropping out the
appropriate section with The GIMP -- "temp1.jpg" -- 8K in size)

Note that I don't think this is a Lazarus bug... it seems to be a Linux
Kubuntu 4.0 problem, as I've had this happen with other kmenu / menu items.
E.g. the real icon is lost and replaced with this boring paper page icon.

In a related question: I used to use Mirco$oft Windowz (many different
versions) for a long time. One feature of Windowz which I did quite like is
that if you created what Windowz called a 'shortcut' then you could edit its
properties and click on the 'change icon' link and pick any .ico file (e.g.
a icon file) and when you applied the change... presto... your shortcut had
a new icon. What is the Kubuntu equivalent of doing this?!? Note: because I
don't feel very comfortable with the command line in Kubuntu.... I would
prefer to use a program in Kubuntu for changing the icons which has a GUI
interface. ;-)

I'm using Kubuntu 8.04 with KDE 4.0... if that helps. I can provide
additional system specs as requested. *SMILE*
