I was hoping someone can help. After installing ATI Catalyst drivers, there is no menu access to the ATI Control Center. I have to run a terminal command to get it to pop up.
DISPLAY=:0 amdcccle
How can I create a launcher to get this command to run and launch the ati software?

Right click on desktop > Create launcher. In the command field enter above command.

It doesn't work. I choose command line in the launcher, but I get an error when trying to launch it.
"There was an error creating the child process in the terminal."
I then removed the DISPLY portion and it seems to work.
amdcccle instead of "DISPLAY=:0 amdcccle"
Is there a way I can run this as root? It needs root to make certain changes.
Thanks.

yes you can. In the launchers command field use
gksu amdcccle

It works. The strange part is, I was playing with gnomenu and those menus pick up the ATI software, but not mintMenu. I will leave that for a different post I suppose. Thanks so much.
