The first step would be to change your ~/GNUstep/Defaults/WMRootMenu file to contain only this text: "menu.hook" Next, make sure you don't have a menu.hook file anywhere under your GNUstep directory (IIRC it would be in GNUstep/Library/WindowMaker/, but i could be wrong. Use find.) Your menus should now be back to the default Debian setup, and update-menus (as root) will work properly. Note that if you run update-menus as your user, then update-menus as root (e.g. when new packages are installed) will not affect your menus; you'll have to update-menus manually as your user. Or just delete the ~/GNUstep/..../menu.hook file. > By the way, since this little flub none of the newly installed > packages has been visible as menu entries either. What did I do? Because you're not using the Debian menus, you won't see them. They are being properly put into the global Debian menus though. - -- finger for PGP public key. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: noconv iQCVAwUBN+0nGL7M/9WKZLW5AQF+mAQAigYNE3HVskh/5nKzWsdamxng9Zhars+D Xc3QO63en2Q3ao2vcCq1GNxieDlYp53bd2LJZ7B7oXSsCafuNTK6a7jLnINZq6Xj CObbgVMDzmlli044sJdWEenttsrafiApV9TLkXJ4r9njOLKf62QpjfuPqSnjgZ4A i585sb40CY8= =Yw5W -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
