I'm running Mandrake 8.0 and I use the KDE desktop.
When I try to create a shortcut to an URL on my desktop and I click on it, nothing happens.
It seems to me that it's opened with "kfmclient openProfile webbrowsing"; this appears when I choose "Open with..." in the menu I get by clicking the icon with the right mouse button.
However, when I try to execute in a terminal window, it works (ex. kfmclient openProfile webbrowsing http://www.mandrakecampus.com).
