[newbie] HELP! Menu items have vanished!
I ran the update tool to update Mandrake last night, I picked say 50 or so rpm's to update, and they totaled around 120 megs. I went to lay down, and fell asleep (It was like 2am). I came to the PC this morning, all packages installed successfully, although when I went into the gnome menu, a good portion of stuff that was there had vanished! I couldnt run the updater again, because it wasnt there! Does anyone know how I can fix this? Or what the problem could be? We're talkin major disappearance... even categories are missing, and under the ones that ARE still there, most of the programs are gone! Please help!
