Hi folks, I have an application menu that we've been using for a few years now under KDE 2.2.2 on about a hundred RH7.*-based systems. It's just a tree under /etc/X11/applnk, like this: applnk |-- Communication | |-- InstantMessaging | |-- Mail | `-- News |-- Computation |-- DataAnalysis |-- Design |-- Development |-- Editors ..... and so on. Each directory has a .directory file, giving the name. Within the directories are *.desktop files. I'd like to take this tree, update it for FC2, and use it as part of a new standard configuration for our department. My original thought was to edit /etc/xdg/menus/applications.menu so that it only contained the following: <!DOCTYPE Menu PUBLIC "-//freedesktop//DTD Menu 1.0//EN" "http://www.freedesktop.org/standards/menu-spec/1.0/menu.dtd";> <Menu> <Name>Applications</Name> <LegacyDir>/etc/X11/applnk</LegacyDir> </Menu> I thought that "LegacyDir" would do the right thing, and create the desired menu tree. Unfortunately, what I end up with is a start menu with no aplications at all. Can anybody tell me what I'm doing wrong here?
