Are the paths different ? debian doesn't set up xdg menus "correctly" for users - they dont export any environment variables to indicate which prefix the system menus should use, thus efreet's "standards compliant" implementation doesn't work, because debian is not "standards compliant" out of the box. you need to set environment variables. my guess is that the root user has these set, but not normal users. see the enlightenment.org wiki and the page about efreet and e17. > Thanks! > cheers, > Guillaume > > > > (I'm not in the operator,staff,sys group) > /etc/enlightenment/sysactions.conf : > > action: halt sudo /sbin/shutdown -h now > action: reboot sudo /sbin/shutdown -r now > # action: suspend /etc/acpi/sleep.sh force > # action: hibernate /etc/acpi/hibernate.sh force > > # root is allowed to do anything - but it needs to be here explicitly anyway > user: root allow: * > # members of operator, staff and admin groups should be able to do all > group: operator allow: * > group: staff allow: * > # group: admin allow: * > group: sys allow: * > # common "user" groups for "console users" on desktops/laptops > # group: dialout allow: * > # group: disk allow: * > # group: adm allow: * > # group: cdrom allow: * > # group: floppy allow: * > # group: audio allow: * > # group: dip allow: * > # group: plugdev allow: * > # put in a list of other users and groups here that are allowed or > denied etc. > # e.g. > # user: myuser allow: * > # user: another allow: suspend hibernate > # deny everyone else by default > user: giggz allow: * > user: * deny: * > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------- > This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc. > Still grepping through log files to find problems?
