Dear all, this email describes two issues around the same task, one is related to gnome-vfs. Please excuse the first part, but it hopefully gives you some idea about what I want.
I have recently installed GNOME 2.10 (from garnome ball 2-10.0.1) and have some trouble with my main menu now. I want to add new programs to this menu but right-clicking on the "foot"-icon does not give me anything like "Properties" or so. It only shows - Help - Remove from Panel - Move - Lock to Panel When going into a menu, I don't get appropriate selections upon right-clicking either. There, I can only find: - Add this launcher to panel - Entire Menu -> Add this as drawer to panel -> Add this as menu to panel Nothing else. Also, the second way described in the GNOME manual, to start nautilus and go to "applications:///" does not help. "applications:///" is not a valid location." is the error message in return. (BTW, that also happens with some other standard locations which were available in my previous GNOME 2.6 installation (e.g. system, preferences), locations such as "fonts:///", "computer:///", or "burn:///" work, though). I have tried to fiddle through the .directory and .desktop-entries in ~/garnome/share/applications but to no avail. To be honest, I somewhat gave up understanding how this works, although I'm still eager to learn about that. GNOME's documentation is a bit lacking here -- or does anyone have a link to a nice and detailed explanation how to tweak these entries? What can I do to add programs to my menus? What have I done wrong before? Especially, I want the KDE menus back which were automatically installed in GNOME with my SuSE 9.2 installation. Any hints? Also, where are my other locations in nautilus? What's wrong with my gnome-vfs? Any help appreciated! Cheers, Manfred PS: I'm running SuSE 9.2 -- although I don't think it matters which distro I use since I suspect the problem in my GNOME installation. PPS: Please advise me if I'm on the wrong list. -- Dr. Manfred Muench Hanfu Ya Yuan, Hanfu Jie No. 4 Haitang Building 7B Nanjing, 210018, P.R.
