Regards, Michel Salim Hmm, I seem to recall that that was frowned upon in the update-menus doco I read (mind you that was MDK 7.1). Safer option (for the paranoid) would be to copy /usr/lib/menu/ksysctrl to /etc/menu/ and then proceed as above

Will keep that in mind though, thanks.

[expert] KDE 2.1 20010115 - observed problem solution
-BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE- Hash: SHA1 Hi all, Been playing with the new KDE 2.1 pre-beta 2 packages and I have observed the following peculiarity: ksysctrl is wrongly defined in /usr/lib/menu/ksysctrl as needing x11, not kde... thus whenever the menus are regenerated, the folder Configuration/KDE is not properly configured for KDE (the line X-KDE-BaseGroup=settings is missing), since one of the subitem was not a KDE menu item (the ksysctrl above) and KControl got very confused. Solution: edit ksysctrl to need kde. Sent a previous mail on not being able to get any sound but silly me, didn't realise at first that the arts daemon has been split up from kdelibs. Did not notice the mail on the mailing list though - weird indeed. Thanks Chris Molnar for the excellent packages!
