[expert] Problem with kde 2.1 final...menudrake doesn't work

2001-03-01 Thread Praedor Tempus

Menudrake is not working properly.  I have lyx, abiword, and several other 
office apps installed.  I can run them from the commandline.  I open up 
menudrake and it is listed there but when I actually look at the kmenu, NONE 
of them are there. 

I open up menudrake again, load user config...lyx, abiword, etc, are listed 
as being there.  I save it.  Still not there.  I open up the system menu.  
They are all listed there but do not show up in the real kmenu.

There appears to be no way to add them or otherwise MAKE them show up in the 
kmenu.  Menudrake is supposed to be the tool for this but it isn't working 
properly.  Anyone else run into this?

Hi Preador,

I have had the same trouble. Have you tried running Menudrake from the
Kde control panel, it's under "system" > Menu Editor.
For some unexplained reaon Menudrake doe not work if you start it by
right clicking on the panel. Starting from the the "Control Centre" has
worked for me and others.


Regards,
