Gnome is correct, but there is no Main Menu under "Desktop -> Preferences".
There is a "Menus and Toolbars" selection, however it has nothing to do
with editing menu items. BTW it looks like "Desktop" has replaced "System".
"Help" talks about creating a "XDG_CONFIG_DIRS/menus/applications.menu"
in $HOME, supposedly to define a menu entry, and while it looks doable, it
also looks like I would be opening a bucket of worms.
I forgot to include the fact that I'm running 2.6.24-etchnhalf.1-486.
Sorry.
What version of gnome does etchnhalf ship with? The menu editor (alacarte)
from ubuntu is probably a much recent version than that with etch. Try
installing alacarte from lenny or sid.
It turned out that alacarte was installed on my system. It wasn't in the
menu and I was unaware of its existence.
Thanks to those who replied and pointed me in the right direction.
