any idea?
I have the same prob here. I think I know the reason but I don't know how to clean up this menu mess. I have SuSE 8.1 with KDE 3.2.1. It seems KMenuEdit writes the menu entries to ~/.local/share/applications/, while the K-Menu reads its contents from .kde/share/applnk/. Then there also is that file .config/menus/applications-kmenuedit.menu. It seems it is somehow responsible for which entries will appear in which menu, but I still don't see the complete picture how the KDE menus are set up. My not so nice solution is to copy the files manually to the correct location after I edited them with KMenuEdit. I am very interested in how this works, so I would appreciate if someone could shed some light on this. Mario
