I have successfully deployed a WebStart app on both Windows and IcedTea.
Just about the only thing I'm missing (- apart from a certificate from a CA
that I can afford - ) is to place entries in the start menu.
It's Peppermint Linux, so the application in question is lxpanel I believe.
I have always found the way that lxpanel collects its applications to be
intellectually quite unpenetrable.
But anyways - WebStart/IcedTea should be able to do it, right? I am getting
a desktop short cut alright, just none in the start menu.
