not all linux distributions execute shellcode if you click on it, which is generally a good thing. there is a freedesktop draft for .desktop files which is widely used on linux distributions, so i'd suggest to place .desktop files to execute the shellcode.

you can find more info here: http://linuxcritic.wordpress.com/2010/04/07/anatomy-of-a-desktop-file/ specs are documented here: http://standards.freedesktop.org/desktop-entry-spec/desktop-entry-spec-latest.html
