I currently have: $ echo $XDG_CONFIG_DIRS /etc/xdg $ echo $XDG_DATA_DIRS /usr/local/share:/usr/share I'm asking because although Enlightenment-17 picks up the kde menu from there, it does not seem to recognise the respective application icons. If I set the icons manually with absolute paths (e.g. /usr/share/icons/oxygen/48x48/apps/knode.png, instead of the generic knode.png) then I end up with duplicate menu entries for each application when I launch kde. Go to settings-settings panel. In the Look category find the Icon Theme option. Set you icon theme to Oxygen. For the duplicates: Check ~/.local/share/applications/ You should find the .desktop files of the applications you changed to absolute paths, kde is probably picking up these and the system ones in /usr/share/applications. The ~/.local ones should not be needed

Thanks, I have only two: $ ls -la /etc/env.d/*xdg* -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 81 Dec 18 11:24 /etc/env.d/30xdg-data-local -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 54 Dec 18 11:24 /etc/env.d/90xdg-data-base and they contain: $ cat /etc/env.d/30xdg-data-local XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/local/share COLON_SEPARATED=XDG_DATA_DIRS XDG_CONFIG_DIRS $ cat /etc/env.d/90xdg-data-base XDG_DATA_DIRS=/usr/share XDG_CONFIG_DIRS=/etc/xdg I assume these were installed by x11-misc/xdg-utils. Is that what they should contain? Any idea why E17 will not work with the generic application icons in the first hand and why changing these to absolute paths creates duplicate menu entries when logged into KDE (which is a rare occurrence for me anyway - but I'd like to understand how cross-desktop menus work). I find all this rather confusing. -- Regards, Mick signature.asc Description: This is a digitally signed message part.
