 Pablounless the rpms are prepared by MandrakeSoft they
 usually don't have the capability of inserting menu enries
 into mdk menus.  Use K(menu)-Configure Panel-Menu Editor to
 add menu entries for this type of software.

You can also just create an entry in /etc/menu
Take a look at man menufile for details or take a peek at some of the 
entries that are already in /usr/lib/menu

[newbie] refreshing menus

2001-06-03 Thread Pablo García Durán



I just installed new applications using RPM, but I 
cannot see them.

I went to Control Center but this didn't 
help.

What should I do?

Thank you!

Dear Benjamin,

thank you for your advice, though I'm afraid it didn't work. The new
applications seem to be installed and running, but there aren't any new
entries on the menus.

Thank you again.

Dear Pablo:

In xterm, type as root:

#update-menus -v

then, exit KDE and log back. That's it.
