Start menu?  I'm running 10.2 & Gnome and I don't have a start menu :(
What's on it? I have a computer menu up the top with all the apps on it.

No, its just the default gnome setup -

Frankly you may call it the application menu, main menu, start or
whatever - its the thing that all the apps like firefox, open office,
k3b, & etc are found under - you know you click on it and it opens up
then you click on Firefox -

Its gone and its very annoying -

Just went in and deleted all the .gnome* files and all the .gconf
files in my home dir and the Main Menu still doesn't come back.  So,
obviously something is hosed elsewhere in the system.

I've heard that gnome is fine till you have a problem then its a nasty bear.

I'm starting to see that this is true -

Perhaps Linus is right you should just forget gnome.

However some are enlightened by enlightenment ;-), it proves there are

The sad fact is that you enjoy other peoples problems -

Probably the sadder fact is that people with your attitude make it
impossible to get help on packages you don't like.  Obviously folks
with gnome problems in OpenSuse should not to use this list for help
because the self-richeous KDE bigots won't allow it -

Wouldn't it be more helpful to leave postings about gnome alone
instead of being a jerk and mocking other peoples problems?

These lighthearted jibes at Gnome are nothing more than mild humor (or, 
at least, attempts at humor). They're akin to a Chevy owner making fun 
of a Volvo driver, or some such silliness.

No one is prevented from helping out. If anything, I would expect it to 
spur some people to come to the aid of a fellow user of Gnome, not 
deter them.

It's not like we're standing in a circle around the Gnome users, 
pointing and laughing at them as if they're the village idiots. No 
serious derision is in evidence.

mean this list. I mean Earth in the year 2007.

Well I am running e17 with an entrance login and for something
theoretically pre-release it is very usable and usually stable, (in fact
on this portable I have not gone into KDE for one hell of a long time).
I originally installed purely as an experiment, but it has now become my
primary desktop.

KDE does not like the sound for this machine and almost anything which
goes near the rather dodgy sound support collapses under KDE. DR17 and
the SuSE release of e16 are fine (as is nearly all the other Window
Managers). For this failing I am grateful to KDE for introducing me to
enlightenment :-)

However, the way SuSE distributes enlightenment pretty much ensures that
you cannot have e16 and e17 safely co-existing on the same machine. (In
the end I was forced to compile the latest e16 from scratch and create a
separate rpm reference to it, this does still require some trouble
shooting :-( as a couple e16 epplets bomb at start).

Ok,
As long as there's a panel left on the bottom of the screen, here's how to 
restore the start menu:
1. Right click on the panel > Add to Panel
2. A window will pop up, scroll down a bit
3. If you want to restore the Novell Gnome start menu, choose: "Main Menu"
4. If you want the original Gnome start menu, choose: "Menu Bar"
5. Adjust the position on the panel, etc.
6. Logout to let Suse save your desktop settings including the start menu.
7. Logon again.

Do 'gdb /opt/gnome/lib/gnome-main-menu/main-menu' and hit 'r' to
run the main menu.

Right click on a blank spot on the panel, Add to panel... and see if it
crashes.

Re: [opensuse] lost start menu in OpenSuse 10.2

Thanks!

Tried that and when you right clicked no options were given -

It really seems that some parts of user info (settings & etc - ) of
the gnome system are stored outside the user's home directory and
there is no way to easily clear it out and start fresh.

Through multiple logins - logouts, reboots and etc I've been able to
get back to where I was but there has to be an easier way to set
things back to a base state after gnome looses its brains,


Be well,


Michael

When you say "no options were given" do you mean the option I asked you
to select was not given in the context menu or no context menu at all?
If none at all, can you interact with the panel at all (popping up the
lock, clicking on the window list, etc)?

No user settings are stored outside of the home dir.
