My best guess is that when a New user logs on to KDE, there must be some script that creates a few of the basic system folders ('.kde' and Autostart for example) and symbolic links to log on a user to KDE. Perhaps you could tweak that script (if it exists or what its name is if it does exist I have no clue!). Try lurking around the KDE mailing lists maybe there's someone over there who know how to help. Hi. U guys aren't talking about /etc/skel, are you?

Re: [newbie] LM8.1 B3
I had the same menu problem in Beta 1, but Beta 2 was fine. Hmmm, maybe it's not us, maybe it's that Raklet Cheese the MandrakeSoft guys keep eating?? Nah, couldn't be. But I found that most things ran a tad faster in Beta2.
