I was intrigued that having renamed my .kde files the | >entries in the menu were still there. | | So, you mean all of your KDE menu stuff are in ~/.kde where gnomevfs2 took | from? No. I just thought that gnome was reading my ~/.kde to get my kde entries for the menu ... but I think I was wrong. | Just want to make sure before I do all the work again with KDE by | install it, and test and hack. I only work with KDE menu with gnomevfs2 by | read in ${LOCALBASE}/share/applnk/ long time ago, so if all your KDE menu | are from ~/.kde then I don't think I can do that much. Now I see, yes I do have a populated ${LOCALBASE}/share/applnk/, is this what gnomevfs reads to fill the menu? If so, I don't get why it's putting all entries together, since in applnk they are correctly put into categories. | If you have the very up to date of KDE and gnomevfs2 read in | ${LOCALBASE}/share/applnk/, then you can send me tarball of | ${LOCALBASE}/share/applnk (or I can download it) and I can try to work | with it to make it looks nicer again.. I do have a tarball of applnk if you want it http://genoma.unsam.edu.ar/~fernan/freebsd/applnk.tar.gz but it's not very up to date: [fernan@pi] pkg_version -v -s kde kde-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdeaddons-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdeadmin-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdeartwork-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdebase-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdeedu-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdegames-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdegraphics-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdelibs-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdemultimedia-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdenetwork-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdepim-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1_1) kdesdk-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdetoys-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdeutils-3.1.4 < needs updating (port has 3.3.1) kdevelop-2.1.5 < needs updating (port has 3.1.1) | >However, is it necessary to reinstall gnomevfs2? | | Aww, rebuild/reinstall gnomevfs2 doesn't take that long. ;-) I was not worried by the time it would take. I was just thinking that if I can tweak a file or two, then re-building a port was not that necessary. | >From reading the Makefile I think that perhaps I can just | >remove the 'KDE.directory' file from | >${PREFIX}/share/gnome/vfolders. Would this do it? | | You can remove that 'KDE.directory', then remove all | '<MergeDir>/usr/local/share/applnk/*/</MergeDir>' and KDE/QT lines in | ${X11BASE}/etc/gnome-vfs-2.0/vfolders/applications-all-users.vfolder-info | .. | | Cheers, | Mezz | +----] OK, that's what I wanted to hear :) Regards, Fernan -- Fernán Agüero | Instituto de Investigaciones Biotecnológicas email | fernan at { iib.unsam.edu.ar , mail.retina.ar } wwww | http://genoma.unsam.edu.ar/~fernan phone, fax | +54 11 { 4580-7255 ext 310, 4752-9639 }
