[olug] Start Here icon question

[Grant]

Mike,
Here are the properties of the "Start Here" icon  Permisions checked are 
Owner read write exec, Group read, others read.
testview is  -rwxr--r--   , owner is francis and group is francis.  
Location is /home/francis/.gnome-desktop.  I got to these properties by 
right click on the icon. 

I did not switch to fedora because I have been trying to learn something 
about Mysql, Apache, and php.  Also I have phpadmin installed on this 
system.  I have been concerned if I change over to fedora my current set 
up will not work correctly.  Cold feet I guess.  If I change over to 
fedora will the apps I listed be supported with out having problems?  I 
suspect if I make the change to fedora, then the start here Icon problem 
will go away.
