I posted a message explaining this yesterday. Search the archives for "KDE menu" or something like that, or even just for my name (Bob Shaffer) and you'll find it. The shortcuts in /var/lib/menu/kde/... come from /usr/share/applications/*.desktop and there is some information that needs to be added to them if it's not there. You can also look in ~/.kde/share/applnk/ for some user-specific shortcuts. /"\ \ / ASCII RIBBON CAMPAIGN - AGAINST HTML MAIL X CAMPANHA DA FITA ASCII - CONTRA MAIL HTML / \ Timothy Murphy said: > My KDE was slightly screwed up today - > I ran SuSE-8.0 from a different partition > but with the same /home > and then returned to Fedora. > > I know I could have deleted ~/.kde and started again, > but that would lose a number of settings, > so I was looking for something less drastic. > > A typical point is that my K-menu now contains > an item "Lost & Found" containing "Terminal" among other items. > I assume "Lost & Found" is not the correct name for this item, > so I have been looking to see which file contains these words, > to date without success. > > So my question is, where exactly does KDE (3.2.1 if that is relevant) > look for the items in the main menu? > > It seems to me that the items are copied to /var/lib/menu/kde/ > but where do the items to be copied come, > and how is it decided which items to include, eg in the main menu? > > As far as I could see, the KDE Manual has nothing on this. > > Any pointers gratefully received. > > > -- > Timothy Murphy > e-mail (<80k only): tim /at/ birdsnest.maths.tcd.ie > tel: +353-86-2336090, +353-1-2842366 > s-mail: School of Mathematics, Trinity College, Dublin 2, Ireland > > > -- > fedora-list mailing list > fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx > To unsubscribe: http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list >
