Did you have to re-create your menus from scratch, or does kmenuedit scan 
your harddisk, or were the other files (/usr/share/something-or-another) 
that you installed along with it? I also detest the Mandrake menu system, 
and would be most happy to have kmenuedit back (are you Mandrake folk 
listening?), but I'm not sure I want to go to the effort of re-creating 
everything. Maybe we should write to both the KDE and Gnome folks and get 
them to agree on a common system for menus, so that Mandrake wouldn't have 
to try to hack it.

I agree. I have two menu items for each folder and program since I installed 
KDE 2. Moreover, half the program entries don't work either.

I detest the Mandrake menu system and did `rpm -e` on menu and menudrake.  
I have Mandrake 7.2 and KDE2 as well.  Yesterday I downloaded 
kdebase-2.1.1.tar.bz2 from the KDE FTP site and installed it over the top of 
the Mandrake 2.0.1.

Welcome back kmenuedit!  And at last I've got the KDE splash image to chase 
that daft old penguin away.
