OK Thanks!
But have you any idea why no desktop icon is created.
I have looked into both nimbuzz.desktop and the facebook.desktop and they look eacxtly the same besides the name of cource and the fact that I needed to change the Exec line to end with facebook.jar (instead of .jad), but then the Icon showed up at homescreen (months ago).
But here with googlemaps no matter using .jad or .jar no icon shows up on homescreen!

Sorry I'm getting too old. I forgot my own lesson handling facebook.desktop a little more than a month ago:

meaning to copy the googlemaps.desktop file into /usr/share/applications/ too and icon is fine on homescreen!
