You will see, that you don=B4t hav= e write access on this newly created icon, which in fact is a file in your Desktop directory. Switch on write access; there will be again an error, but it actually is changed. Next time you open it, you have write access and the errors are gone. But only for this special file. This for sure is a bug in the KDE implementation of FreeBSD, at least I never noticed this in different Linux distros. But I=B4m waiting for KDE 2, there your bug reports will be meaningful (should be out in September). > P.S. The cause here probably relate sto another > problem I emailed about earlier today, about netscape > only running for me when I am root (All other users > can't run it without su'ing to root in a terminal > window and running netscape from there). I don=B4t think there=B4s a relation of the problems. Who is running your= X server? Root? Try xhost or for security reasons better (but not so simple) xauth.
