There have the faq about how to edit the menu: http://www.freebsd.org/gnome/ The maintainer of linux-opera has removed the Opera's icon option by use patch, but I can show you the 'short' how-to at bottom. linux-opera7 has been added in the ports and the maintainer is me. The icons will appearing in KDE, Gnome and other WM by automatic. ;-) Here's 'short' how-to % cd /usr/ports/www/linux-opera ; make extract % cd work/op*/images/ % cp opera.xpm /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/pixmaps/ Now, create the opera.desktop that will appearing in the Internet menu. % cat /usr/X11R6/share/gnome/apps/Internet/opera.desktop [Desktop Entry] Name=Opera Comment=Web Browser Exec=opera Icon=opera.xpm Terminal=0 Type=Application I think, it's all. Also, there have 16x16 to 48x48 png image in the work/op*/images/ and you can use it.
