I had the same problem, and it just disappeared yesterday, perhaps after the latest kde updates and reinstall of rkward... do not know why. But here is my try to explain:
If you compile rkward from source using the command sequence cmake . make make install Rkward gets installed in /usr/local/ and all the menu items and start page are visible. However, if I try to install it to /usr by following the install instructions and build it with cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=$KDEDIR I get it installed in / instead, however weird it might sound. And I get the problems described here: missing menu items and no start page.... so I did echo $KDEDIR and got an empty string.... then I rebuild rkward with cmake . -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/usr and everything was fine again. So I can simulate the problem, but it does not help me to explain, why did the problem suddenly go away. -- [intrepid]rkward 0.5.0b-2 in Intrepid Ibex starts but doesn't work.
