Thanks Don! Once you told me that the menu name did not have the word suse in it and I saw the LegacyKMenu it was more understandable. Apparently that was the secret keyword. Not very well documented but it worked! What I actually did was "ADD" the secret word "LegacyKMenu=true" to the /etc/opt/kde3/share/config/kickerrc file and all new users default to the kdemenu! Thanks very much!

As an administrator I have been asked to see if I can configure all users to use the KDE start menu rather than the SUSE menu. I know how to change it if done by the user. Right mouse click on the rascal in the bottom left corner and then left click on "Switch to KDE menu style".
Can I in some way make this a system wide default, even if just for new users.
I have figured out how to make a file go into the Autostart folder (via /etc/skel). I just can not find anything that would help me find a command or config option (/opt/kde3/share/config.kcfg /etc/opt/kde3....) that would let me set the menu style to KDE.
You were in the right place! In /opt/kde3/share/config.kcfg/kickerSettings.kcfg you should find the section (and by that I mean that's what I have here) <entry name="LegacyKMenu" type="Bool" > <label>When this option is enabled, the classic K Menu is used.</label> <default>false</default> </entry> I presume that changing false to true would result in new users getting the old (sorry, Legacy) menu, but I've not tested it. For existing users you need to add LegacyKMenu=true to the [General] section of ~/.kde/share/config/kickerrc. (That bit at least I've tested.)
