This is what I am doing:
1) right click on the blue globe (Web Browser...)
2) left click on "+" (Add new item)
3) left click on launcher
4) answer a bunch of questions, then click "+Add"
I get an icon to the right of the globe
I had to hand download all the FC6 rpm's off of pbone
(work fine in CentOS5/RHEL5). Did I miss one?
