the desktop file: you should move it from

You can just add that command to the Exec field in the desktop file of that application.
-
/usr/share/applications/
+
-
to
+
-
/usr/share/applications/hildon/
+
-

-
the icon, from:
+
-
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/80x80/apps/
+
-
or
+
-
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/64x64/apps/
+
-
to
+
-
/usr/share/icons/hicolor/scalable/apps/
+
-
 
+
-
Now you only need to modify the desktop file to make the game working with meecolay !
+
-
We'll take FruitGo as an example
+
-
on leafpad (or any other text editor you like).
+
-
leafpad /usr/share/applications/hildon/FruitGo.desktop
+
-
you will see this :
+
-
[Desktop Entry]
+
-
Encoding=UTF-8
+
-
Version=1.0
+
-
Type=Application
+
-
Terminal=false
+
-
Name=FruitGo
+
-
Exec=/usr/bin/invoker --type=d -s /opt/FruitGo/bin/FruitGo
+
-
Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/80x80/apps/FruitGo80.png
+
-
X-Window-Icon=
+
-
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
+
-
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
+
-
remove the exec commands and write meecolay instead, so the desktop file should look like this one :
+
-
[Desktop Entry]
+
-
Encoding=UTF-8
+
-
Version=1.0
+
-
Type=Application
+
-
Terminal=false
+
-
Name=FruitGo
+
-
Exec=meecolay /opt/FruitGo/bin/FruitGo
+
-
Icon=FruitGo80
+
-
X-Window-Icon=
+
-
X-HildonDesk-ShowInToolbar=true
+
-
X-Osso-Type=application/x-executable
+
-
 
+
-
now the game should work!
+
-
You may need to restart the phone for the changes to make effect.
