Shortcut Question

[dudeking]

Right I know I probily sound like a complete idiot asking this but....
How can I put a shortcut to home/dudeking/dudeking on my desktop in gnome?
I've got one to my home folder but I need it to go to /dudeking

Thanks

You can either open up nautilus (the file browser) and 'drag&drop' the folder on your desktop, or open a console and run 'ln -s /home/dudeking/dudeking /home/Desktop'. There are also other ways, but these two would be easiest for your setup.

Thanks kage, the drag and drop didnt work but ther terminal way did (had to login as root thought)
