i'm trying to come up with a good .desktop file for sublime text 2, but middle click isn't opening a 2nd window, and when I specify an Exec line with --new-window sublime opens 2 windows to start!
Is there any way to specify a different command line when you middle click (shift click etc) on the unity launcher?
I have a .desktop file in .local/share/applications for opening text files in vim (console version). This works perfectly in gnome, unity. In Lxde it fails. I tried using lxterminal in place of gnome-terminal.
My sublime-text 2 editor no longer starts when I click it's icon in my dock.
The icon does the normal slow pulsing for a while (unity) but nothing seems to load.
How can I determine why sublime has started failing?

[Desktop Entry]
Name=Files

Exec=pcmanfm %U
Icon=system-file-manager
Terminal=false
NoDisplay=true
Type=Application

Hope this is in the right place and I apologize in advance if it is not.
Many people would like not to have to open a terminal or have more granular control over permitions that can be achieved using PAM permissions(read the man pages for PAM for more information) and the consolehelper.
Seen here, d checked on a live session though because it's an X Window System error maybe hardware is a factor.
