I had this problem after doing an apt-get dist-upgrade on Friday. I do use startx rather than gdm, xdm, wdm, etc. I saw an error stating that /usr/bin/cpp couldn't be found on the terminal I had started X from in X 's output. I went and looked and sure enough, no cpp, but cpp-2.95 and cpp-3.0. I created a symlink to cpp-2.95, restarted Windowmaker, and got my application menu back. ===== [EMAIL PROTECTED] Hacking is a "Good Thing!"
