I say this because on my Archlinux install (KDE 3.5) systemsettings was on the menu, but no kcontrol. An enquiry to the list said to look in /usr/share/applications/kde/kcontrol.desktop. If you open this file while su'ed to root, at the bottom of the file is a line as below. NoDisplay=true (which means it won't show up on the menu) Simply changing this to. NoDisplay=false, and saving, Will by some miracle add it to KDE's main menu. Personally I prefer kcontrol, rather than the new systemsettings. See the link below, that shows kcontrol still there with KDE4.0 http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/4.0/kdebase/workspace/ I hope that I havn't put my foot in it, as I don't have Fedora 9's cd's downloaded yet (just started on disk 4 on dialup), so don't have it installed. All the best. Nigel. btw. What's this Akademy that you're going to? -- fedora-list mailing list fedora-list@xxxxxxxxxx To unsubscribe: https://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-list
