There's just beginning a discussion among the developers on
the cooker list that menu editing needs some fixing. It's prob'ly
less a hardware difference, than how and how much of 7.1 you
installed (just my guess).
I don't know how long you've been running since you made menu
changes, or how often you reboot to Linux (I dual boot). My
experience with su'ing from user to root and make menu changes was
that sooner or later they'd be lost. Sometimes just by restarting
X. Only since I began logging into root's desktop and making menu
changes from there have they become more or less 'permanent'.
I've also got a feeling that this is all gonna be academic when
KDE2, and XFree-4 become the norm this fall, eg Mandrake 7.2?
