8.0: WordPerfect Office 2000
I installed WordPerfect Office 2000 using the downloadable Corel installation script, but it does not show up on the KDE3 menus. Any thoughts? Thanks. geno

The script probably addded the menu entry to default KDE menu, but what you see in a default SuSE install is the SuSE menu instead. You can switch to the KDE menu using the Control Center or copy the menu entry to the SuSE menu with the menu editor. Best Regards, Keith -- LPIC-2, MCSE, N+ Got spam?

The icon group will be hidden in one of your legacy icon locations. If I remember correctly, Corel installs icon groups in /usr/share/applnk, ~/.kde/share/applnk, or /opt/kde/share/applnk. If any of your kde dirs have a "3" on the end, that will be your problem. This will be a difference of the kdedir as seen by the WPO install script, and as seen by your SuSEConfig. You would think the two would be the same but they're not. When I installed Corel PhotoPaint last week, I had to chase the icons as well. Found them under ~/.kde. If they are still using /etc/opt/kde3/share/applnk or some such for the SuSE icons, you can simply move the group/folder there and the icons should appear on the menu. JS

WPO was a trainwreck on 7.3 . I doubt it's any better on 8, but I wish it were. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v1.0.6 (GNU/Linux) Comment: For info see http://www.gnupg.org iD8DBQE81WixnQ18+PFcZJsRAkNIAJ9vYP/qDM1XFdBgOJg9TuOCN3tGbgCfQmGr DIYgFxS/elbj/Sma1LCK4R4= =Ibv+ -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
