RH 8.0's maligning of the X-Window Desktop is causing me some problems. I have chosen KDE as my Desktop GUI, its related themes, look and feel (to the extent that this distribution will allow) and have been working with its diferences from a 'stock' set-up, well enough. However, I cannot fing any way to add any apps to the K Menu. Specifically, I upgradedXimian's Evolution form the 1.0.8 that comes with RH 8.0 to 1.2. The installation/upgrade was flawless. Unfortunately, my menu link was lost completely, while my Desktop and panel links became inactive. I have already resolved the latter two, but can't get the app registered in K Menu.
I did some research and found that'kappfinder' could be used to seek out apps not already on the menu. I found that the applet was not on my system, even though I loaded all the components available from a 'selected package' install. When I copied over 'kappfinder' from my Mandrake 9.0 workstation throught the network and adjusted permissions (I believe they are both using the same version of KDE), then ran it, the applet indefinitely stalled shortly after running the app search. There are no menu choices (KDE or Gnome) to edit the menu, although I can very easily add links to the Desktop and bottom panel. Has anyone experienced this? Does anyone have a clue as to what can be done to rectify this, short of resintalling KDE from my CDs and/or installing a non-RH-maimed version of KDE?
