NB 24 from the Ubuntu Taskbar?

Hello.

If memory serves me correctly, I installed NB 18 from a zipped tar in
Ubuntu 24.04. I recently had to purchase a new computer and, from Ubuntu
24.04, I installed NB 24 through the same way.

Perhaps I forgot something simple, but it appears that I cannot lock the
facility to start NB from the Ubuntu taskbar that comes out from the left
of screen like I could with NB 18; I can only start it from a CLI.

I would like to start NB 24 from the Ubuntu taskbar. Can this be done with
NB 24?

Thanks,

  Owen.
