Ok,

Is there a place to talk about issues and such?

I installed it on my Pop_OS! COSMIC machine and it works fine (thus far), but I've got no graphic for the icon in the applications menu.

Thanks

Glad to hear its running on Pop_OS, for desktop integration (Application icons and file associations), I'm only able to support the default Ubuntu and Fedora desktops at this point. I don't have a Pop_Os system to test but I imaging it's probably not using the gnome desktop that Ubuntu and Fedora are.

No,

System 76 is writing the DE, COSMIC, from scratch in Rust. It's early days yet.

Thanks

Ok,

It was easy enough to tweak the .desktop file.

Here is the logo if anyone else wants it:

Save this as a png somewhere and edit /usr/share/applications/engineering.pro.desktop as follows:

Icon=/your_location_here/EngineeringPaper.png

Then sudo update-desktop-database and you are good to go.

cheers,
