I set my 8 year old son up with a Mandrake 9.0 machine. He's had it for about a year now and I've installed Q3A and Quake 2. I found a nice game boy advance emulator to run on his machine and while I can get it to run from the shell I cannot get it to run from KDE. I tried the following script which I just copied from the working Q3A script and I get nothing. I did change the permissions and I have searched through the archives.

Here's the script.

#!/bin/sh
# Needed to make symlinks/shortcuts work.
# Run visual gameboy with pokemon ruby game

cd /home/andrew/VisualGameboy
./VisualBoyAdvance games/0907PokemonRuby.zip
exit $?


the zip file in the games directory is the game to be played. If I enter all of the command in the script(minus the first line) from a shell, it works fine.

Does anyone have any idea what I'm doing wrong?
