Lost menu

2007-04-02 Thread Bernard Fay

Hi,

A while ago, I installed CrossOver from Codeweavers which appeared in my
menu Applications of Gnome.  Since an updated those menu for CrossOver are
gone.  In Alacarte Menu Editor, I can see those menu as visible but I don't
actually see them.  What might be wrong?

Thanks

Hi,

I'm going to guess that you have the menu package installed, if so take a 
look at :

/usr/share/doc/menu/html
that will explain how to get your menus all straight.

but for example, I use a version of rxvt that I've compiled myself, so in 
~/.menu Ive put a file nameed rxvt with this in it:

?package(rxvt):needs=x11 section=XShells  \
   longtitle=Rxvt: terminal emulator for Xtitle=Rxvt\
   command=/usr/local/bin/rxvt -bg black -sl 5000 -fg white -fn fixed 
-vb


then run update-menus, and I get a menu option under Xshells named Rxxt.

hth,
Jeff

If you select Applications in Alacarte, is Visible ticked for the
Crossover menu?

Actually, GNOME doesn't use the Debian menu system, it uses the
freedesktop.org menu specification.

Yes, Sven, Visible is ticked for the Crossover menu.  But still, not
visible!
