Broken icon on Linux #1717
Comments
Also on Arch, installed Insomnia 7.0.1 via AUR and also seeing this issue with KDE Plasma 5.16.5 |
Also in Ubuntu 19.04, installed via .deb package. |
Same issue, Ubuntu 19.04 installed via repository |
Found a (temporary) solution on Ubuntu 18.04: On your terminal, run: locate insomnia.png It should show something like this: /usr/share/icons/hicolor/0x0/apps/insomnia.png Now edit the insomnia.desktop file (BACKUP THIS FILE BEFORE EDITING): sudo nano /usr/share/applications/insomnia.desktop Change the 'Icon' line to reflect the following: Icon=/usr/share/icons/hicolor/0x0/apps/insomnia.png Close any opened instances of Insomnia and open a new one, the icon should show now |
Fix worked for me on Arch as well, and the icon showed up in the same location. It'd still be good to get a fix to the installation process so this doesn't happen |
Hmm, strange. Probably an easy fix but is frustrating that this keeps happening. Will fire up a VM and get this one fixed for the next release. |
It happens on Ubuntu 16.04.6 LTS (Xenial Xerus). That fix works for me. Thank you @christianlmc! |
Workaround does not work for Xubuntu 18.04. (((
|
Same on 7.0.3 |
Just got an Ubuntu VM going so I can work on a fix |
The AppImage seems to be fine, which is weird |
I fixed this in elementary OS by linking the icon in to /usr/share/pixmaps:
Log out, then log back in and the icon should appear. |
That fix works for me. Thank you @wdolorito !

Does not work for Xubuntu 18.04 |
I was curious about this, since elementary is built on ubuntu 18.04 as well, so I downloaded an ISO and installed Xubuntu in a VM. After installing insomnia from the repos, as expected, the icon did not appear in the menus. I linked the icon as I did in eOS, logged out, logged back in and the icon showed up. Are you still experiencing the problem? |
Same here on Insomnia 7.0.3 running on Linux Mint 19.1 and 19.2. |
@christianodejesus , |
The workaround worked for me. The problem is in the insomnia.desktop file. The Icon entry was like that: Icon=Insomnia |
Can you all give this new Beta build a try and let me know if it works? Seems to be working on my Ubuntu install for AppImage, Snap, and deb https://github.com/getinsomnia/insomnia/releases/tag/v7.0.4-beta.6 |
Works on Ubuntu 16.04 LTS, thanks |
Awesome, thanks for letting me know! |
Is this still an issue? |

I think 7.0.1 broke the desktop icon again:
I'm using Gnome 3.34.1
