Yes, it loads the default Gnome menu layout instead of Red Hat's. From
the code in the new gnome-vfs it appears that in the future a default
menu layout will be selectable from gconf.

home directory? I'm not sure what you did here.

You can pull up the menu in nautilus by typing applications:
(note the ':' on the end) in the location bar. Or by clicking start-here
and then applications. Then you can just create launchers, or drag/drop
existing ones to where you want them. It seems you still have to create
folders/subfolders by hand. I haven't had time to play it anymore today.

The base menu layouts are in /etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders. Any changes a
user makes to their menu layout is stored in ~/.gnome2/vfolders.
