I've been away for a while. I tried out that command, no good. /etc/xdg/menus/application-merged is *NOT* a symlink on my install. Extracting the deb does not help. I seem to have a kde-essential.menu now, however, it has not fixed the problem. I suppose I'll have to download the Alpha3 CD and see if the problem is still there. -- KControl and KInfoCenter are empty after Gutsy upgrade https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/152325 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is the bug contact for Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
