Mint/Cinnamon
I would like to execute MYAPP when an SD/usb card in inserted.
The default action is "ask what to do"
I choose "other" and a list of available apps pops up
Obviously MYAPP is missing ;-)
I believe I have to create a file: /usr/share/applications/MYAPP.desktop
Done:
----
[Desktop Entry]
Type=Application
Name=MYAPP
Exec=java -jar /mnt/somewhere/MYAPP.jar
Categories=System;
----
Bad luck: even after a reboot MYAPP does not show up :-(
Could you help me ?
TIA !!

To make it easier to edit, you can put it in
~/.local/share/applications
First I'd look at the menu to see if it's there and does it run from the menu.

thanks for yr attention :-)
sadly, after putting
MYAPP.desktop
into
~/.local/share/applications
it starts from the menu,
but still does not appear into the list of "other apps" when the SD card
is inserted :-(
