Re: [newbie] Can't find StarOffice in KDE menu
It's not a bug. SO was designed for integration with KDE1, not KDE2.

Re: [newbie] Can't find StarOffice in KDE menu
StarOffice 5.1 was released when KDE 1.x was still the norm. It can add itself to the KDE 1 menu, but this is now pointless since most people use KDE 2 today.

You can do it easily enough by clicking on K menu\Configure Panel\Menu Editor Select where you want to insert the link, put a name in the Title box on the right, and soffice in the command box. If I anticipate your likely next question, you can print from Cups in Star Office by looking at this tutorial http://www.mandrakeuser.org/docs/hardware/hcups8.html Have fun Derek On Thursday 13 September 2001 19:07, you wrote: I installed StarOffice.. and it tells me it is installed into the KDE menu.

RE: [newbie] Can't find StarOffice in KDE menu
As a complete newbie... Does anything automatically link itself into the menus? I've installed a number of things off the LM CD and never got links to them... Is linking part of the RPM standard? -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]]On Behalf Of Ed Kasky Sent: 14 September 2001 01:53 To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: [newbie] Can't find StarOffice in KDE menu I even reported this little bug to Star and never heard anything back...

Re: [newbie] Can't find StarOffice in KDE menu
You can put whatever you like into an RPM package, including links. however, most independent packagers (i.e. those not packaging for a distribution company) don't bother doing this. Also, some distributions like Debian and Mandrake have their own menu systems, which are incompatible with the default systems.
