System name:		nakula.mit.edu

Display type:		m

Shell:			/bin/athena/tcsh
Window manager:		sawfish

What were you trying to do?
   I created an icon in the bottom panel thingie (right-click, Add to Panel,
	Launcher) to launch a program.  Later, I realized the command
	I'd put in it wasn't quite right, and I didn't like the icon
	I'd assigned, so I changed them.

What's wrong:
	
The original creation of the icon worked, and the changes I made took effect
immediately as expected, but they do not persist after I log out by typing
"logout" in an xterm window.  On my next login (on the same workstation), I'm
back to the old icon running the old command. Changes do seem to persist if I
log out using the gnome "start menu".


What should have happened:

Changes to the panel should persist even when I log out the Athena way
rather than the Gnome way.


Please describe any relevant documentation references:
