Menu Editing.

RoaCh Of DisCor · 07-11-2004, 05:31 PM

I've searched through threads, and looked on google...but still have had no luck. I'm using fedora core 2. I open up kmenuedit, and it works..I can edit/add things, and I hit save...it acts like it saves correctly, but the menu never updates.

I've looked in the ~/.kde folder, and in the applink folder or whatever, there's only one folder...

How would I go about manually editing my menu's contents...or is there other programs that can do this? Thanks.

Fedora Core does not use the KMenu, it uses it's own menu structure. I believe you can only change the default menu as the root user.

But If I run the program as root...it only shows the root menu.

The way I have changed my fedora menu before, was to start nautilus as root, go to start-here, then applications and then you can edit menu items as you wiash. The changes appear on all users menus. There could be another way so google about.

I'm not sure why this worked, but it did!

Someone in efnet told me to delete my ~/.local and ~./config directories, and to restart kde. I did this, opened kmenuedit, and it works perfectly now

I'll have to keep a record of your solution for myself just in case I face similar problem in the future.
