Hey, Have a look in `/etc/xdg/menus` and `~/.config/menus`. These are the default locations for the menu definition files. If you're after a list of _everything_ that was installed then another way to find out would be to chroot to the disk and run something like `dpkg --get-selections | grep -v deinstall > /tmp/aptlist.out` cheers, Owen. -- SLUG - Sydney Linux User's Group Mailing List - http://slug.org.au/ Subscription info and FAQs: http://slug.org.au/faq/mailinglists.html
