Hi All,

I noticed recently that I lost all my kde menu entries. I just have now the favorites, the run command and the leave special entries.
I did not do anything than trying to play with vmware (the one I downloaded from the website).

Anyway is there a way to restore them ?

Thanks

Hi dextermagnific,
Rename your .kde4 file to .kde4_old and restart your X. Copy each old subdirectory of your .kde4_old to the new one and restart your X in the middle, one after another. This way you probably will find the one which is causing the mess. In last case, use your new .kde4 and rebuild your old menus. I'd rather choose this option!.
G'Luck,

And don't leave your widgets unlocked.
Gerard.
To install Gentoo I use sysrescuecd.Based on Gentoo,has firefox to browse Gentoo docs and mc to browse (and edit) files.
The same disk can be used for 32 and 64 bit installs.
You can follow the Handbook verbatim.
