      From: 1j9448a02@lnx159sneakemail.com.invalid              Hello everyone, first some info              $ lsb_release -a && echo Desktop environment: $DESKTOP_SESSION       Description: Ubuntu 24.04.1 LTS       Desktop environment: mate              Let's do some tests              $ systemctl status "mnt-router\x2dstorage.automount"       â—Ź mnt-router\x2dstorage.automount        Loaded: loaded (/etc/fstab; generated)       blabla...              OK, however to execute the command more conveniently, I created a       desktop entry              $ cat xxx.desktop       [Desktop Entry]       Name=xxx       Icon=xxx       Exec=systemctl status "mnt-router\x2dstorage.automount"       Terminal=true       Type=Application              $ desktop-file-install --dir ~/.local/share/applications xxx.desktop              The problem is that the item does not appear in the dashboard              https://pasteboard.co/59WVdFN8lJPn.png              The problem is that maybe I should remove the backslashs              $ grep '\\' xxx.desktop       Exec=systemctl status "mnt-router\x2dstorage.automount"              but then the command wouldn't work              $ systemctl status "mnt-routerx2dstorage.automount"       Unit mnt-routerx2dstorage.automount could not be found.              So how can it be solved?              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
