I have done this :

$ cat /usr/share/applications/unicorn.desktop 
[Desktop Entry]
Name=Unicorn status
Comment=Bewan ADSL modem status monitor
Exec=/usr/bin/bewan_adsl_status
Terminal=false
Type=Application
MimeType=application/x-executable
Categories=System;Network;Monitor

exited gnome (and X) and loged in again, but can't find any
corresponding menu item.

What did i do wrong ?

Friendly,

Sven Luther
