I am a Canadian and had the same problem, but I seem to have found a work-around.
I followed White Rabbit's suggestion, but I found my "Region and Language" set to default. I set it to "America, North > United States of America" and restarted the x-server. The cryptic "_: Entries . . " was gone. Out of curiosity i went back to System Settings and changed my Region and language to "America, North > Canada". This added British English above US English in the list of languages. I then removed US English from the list of languages. Lastly I restarted the x-server. All is still well. -- Kicker adds _: Entries in K-menu: to certain programs https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/135084 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Kubuntu Team, which is a bug contact for kdebase in ubuntu. -- kubuntu-bugs mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/kubuntu-bugs
