Good day.
I use KDE 3.5. I had a shortcut for an app. in KDE-menu that I have removed from
my OS. Now I want to assign the same shortcut to another app. but
kde-menu-editor says that the key combination is already in use.
How I can fix this?
Thank You for Your time.

you define "Linux OS" as RedHat or SuSE.
