Hey Matthew,

My upgrade went smooth as did a fresh install I did last week of that
RPM....

I believe the vmware-config.pl script is the one responsible for
creating said .desktop files.  The second question of that script asks
where to install the desktop files and the default on my system
is /usr/share/applications which I kept, and I have both icons.

Did you, by any chance, abort a subsequent running of vmware-config.pl?
Let it run through and the icons should be back....

This is a case of YMMV. In my case, after I did an "rpm -Uvh" with the
5.5.2 rpm package vmware-config.pl failed due to a permissions problem
in /tmp/vmware-config0/. Everything went fine after I extracted the
.gz tarball, ran vmware-install.sh, and then vmware-config.pl.
