Confirming and changing summary, component.
We've had winemenubuilder add a "StartupWMClass=Wine" entry to .desktop files
it generates for a while now (I wrote that patch). This should turn the mouse
cursor to an hourglass and make a "Starting ..." tab on your window list until
the application opens a window.
.desktop entries made by very old (long before 1.0) versions of Wine won't have
this entry, so you should reinstall the application with a recent version of
Wine.
Testing done on Ubuntu 8.10 with Gnome 2.24.1 and a Wine git just after 1.1.10
compiled from source.
* When you start an application from the menus it works.
* It doesn't work when you double-click on an .EXE from nautilus, even with the
"StartupWMClass=Wine" key in wine.desktop.
* It doesn't work for .desktop files on the Desktop either, only those in the
menus. Even if you copy a .desktop entry from the menus to the Desktop, it
still doesn't work.
Maybe we need to support the full startup notification spec
(http://standards.freedesktop.org/startup-notification-spec) but it's long and
seems unnecessary.
I'll try do some investigating, the missing functionality seems more due to
Ubuntu/Gnome bugs than Wine.
