all KDE menus gone !
 

Hi all,

after installing CX-Office, all my KDE menus are gone (I use KDE 3.1.x and the RedHat 9 distribution).

Does anyone know where KDE has its start-menu items? I found some kind of default entries in /usr/share/applnk-redhat/ , but if I copy all of the items (and make them chown username . of course) to ~/.kde/share/applnk-redhat, nothing happens - means, the items continue to disappear ...!

After creating a test user, I found out that he has all necessary menu entries available, but no ~./kde/share entry at all! So this has to mean that the menu entries are somewhere else ...

Has anyone got a hint or help for me? I would greatly appreciate it!!

Sincerely

Dennis

what do you mean by all gone? can you see the kde start menu?
no? just add it to your panel, right click panel, add > special button> k menu.

if you can see you're k start menu, then you'd better create your own menu through menu editor in control panel, u can simply copy from the .kde of other user and edit it.

try to access the start menu first using alt-f1 (default key for k menu)
