Hi Thomas, Thanks for your reply.
I discovered alacarte after much googling and have restored my whisker menu. I had not found the guide you linked, but it is now bookmarked. If I'm not mistaken this is the same .desktop file content used on the Raspberry Pi desktop. I am working on the firewire issue. I have a thread going on the Linux Audio Users list and am making progress.
