I've finally figured out how to fix the broken gnome menus that cause duplicate directory entries to appear under (for example) Preferences... edit /etc/xdg/menus/preferences.menu comment out/delete the entries "<LegacyDir>/usr/share/gnome/apps</LegacyDir>" and "<LegacyDir>/etc/X11/applnk</LegacyDir>". Log out and back in again (actually in my case, it was an unexpected reboot, but I'm assuming a simple login cycle will do it- btw, boo to having to login cycle for this to take affect). BTW, these xml files reference version 1.0 of the spec, but the freedesktop site only contains up to version 0.8. -- prothonotar at tarnation.dyndns.org "Every man is a mob, a chain gang of idiots." - Jonathan Nolan, /Memento Mori/
