So I run "rpm -e --nodeps redhat-menus" and my KMenu always goes back to the way that it is supposed to be. Also, I sometimes have to re-install redhat-menus when I run "yum update" Sometimes one of the updates depends on redhat-menus. Then, after "yum update" has completed, I immediately remove "redhat-menus" as described above. By this point, you are wondering, what does this have to do with not being able to start Konqueror from the Menu? I have discovered that with "redhat-menus" installed, not only can't I start Konqueror from the Menu, but I cannot start Konqueror from the Icon on my Kicker. (Actually, I have to go all the way to the Internet sub-menu to even find Konqueror. "redhat-menus" seems to do a real number on my KMenu...) But, as soon as I uninstall "redhat-menus", my KMenu is repopulated, the "Home" icon reappears in KMenu, and I can now start Konqueror from the Icon that I have on Kicker. Check out these screenshots and see if they look like anything you've seen: With "redhat-menus" installed: http://www.afolkey2.net/Projects/kmenu-1038am.jpg With "redhat-menus" removed: http://www.afolkey2.net/Projects/kmenu-1039am.jpg Have a Great Day, Steven P.
