I want start electrum from gnome menu without opening terminal but with these parameters:
flatpak run org.electrum.electrum --server localhost:50002:s --oneserver
I use Fedora 32. Is this possible? what to edit?
this is a flatpak application…
Place this file in the /usr/share/applications directory so that it is accessible by everyone, or in ~/.local/share/applications if you only wish to make it accessible to a single user.
i can not find in these places any electrum.desktop file to edit…
Hi,
You will probably need to create one
Thanks Tom.
tjdoyle thanks for your response
application has already a gnome menu entry that i can use, i want to pass parameters on it
Hi,
Have you tried editing the Exec= in the entry and adding the extra paremeters?
Thanks Tom.
I cant find the desktop file in order to edit exec. Where is it? Not in expected places as i explained in previous post
Hi,
If you can’t find the existing gnome entry, for now I would just create one in:
~/.local/share/applications
Thanks Tom.
Hi, try locate -i electrum.desktop
to find where the desktop file is, it might be in /var/lib/flatpak/exports/share/applications
. Copy the file to ~/.local/share/applications
and do your changes. I found this related issue:
thanks ersen
so i found it here (and some other places also):
/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share/applications/org.electrum.electrum.desktop
Also the link helps a lot, very useful info.
I willy try to solve it later today or tomorrow and i inform what happened…
finally
i copied
org.electrum.electrum.desktop
from
/var/lib/flatpak/exports/share/applications/org.electrum.electrum.desktop
to direcory
~/.local/share/flatpak/exports/share/applications/
edited passing my options to Exec
and everything is ok!
thanks all for your help especially ersen whose reply was closer to the solution!
