He is referring to the fact that in GNOME at least, the FDO menu structure is dynamically created based on what you have installed at the time. If you have hundreds of games from different genres, the games menu will be a bunch of submenus, but if you have only a few, it will have no sub-menus. That said, there are certainly FDO menu implementations that do not do this, E17 with the Illume theme on OpenMoko comes to mind. I installed sgt-puzzles there and did not get a games sub-menu. > No; it's more that packages which add a *lot* of menu items should add a > submenu for them. Alternatively, some further subdivision by type (not > necessarily making the menu tree deeper, though). That is certainly possible, since there are at least 3 packages in Debian that extend the FDO menu in some way (education-menus, extra-xdg-menus, islamic-menus and possibly moblin-menus). -- bye, pabs http://wiki.debian.org/PaulWise -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-devel-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe".
