Thanks Jason but I have no /usr/lib/menu/kdebase-fileappearance (and no <br> /usr/lib/menu), and locate kdebase-fileappearance returned nothing. <br> As for the kbuildsycoca, That's one of the things I tried, (probably without <br> the--noincremental), and I don't believe I did the update-menus -v, but I have <br> no update-menus command either). <br> <br> So far, all my local searches have been /etc/k----rc and ~/config/*.desktop (and <br> other limited searches I don't recall off hand). <br> <br> I have searched google for various search terms (and google is usually my <br> friend, but search criteria is important and maybe I haven't found the right terms yet. And of course, KDE FAQ and archives. There are several similar problems <br> there but none fixed me as yet...<br> <br><b><i>Jason Mancini <jayrusman@hotmail.com></i></b> wrote:<blockquote class="replbq" style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(16, 16, 255); margin-left: 5px; padding-left: 5px;"> Edit

I updated my KDE-3.4 to 3.5.1 using yum with<br> kde-redhat -stable repos. I was having problems with groupupdate so I did <br>it<br> with yum update kde*. (I didn't want to update OO or anything else anyway,<br> JUST KDE desktop).<br> All went well.<br> The next day I did a check-update with kde-redhat and found 3 more <br>packages I<br> might need.<br> PyQt.i386<br> PyQt-devel.i386 and<br> redhat-menus.noarch<br> after updating these 3 packages, I lost my system settings sub menu with <br>all its<br> apps, I lost the menu editor (rightclick on kmenu, the editor is still <br>there but<br> doesn't work), and I lost the panel (kicker) config options, and I lost <br>the
control<br> center.<br><br> I have tried many things and can't remember all of what I tried.<br> I found the kmenuedit executable and replaced the system settings submenu<br> and the only app I could recall being in there was the service manager. <br>the<br> control center->desktop->panel window is empty. I found kcontroedit <br>executable<br> but don't know what to do.<br><br> Any suggestions? I would like to try to "fix" this if I can for the <br>learning<br> experience, but if I need to remove/reinstall KDE I guess I will.<br> I know I can relace the missing menus and apps, but I don't know what they<br> are. I can deal with kmenuedit CLI instead of the rightclick option. I <br>have no<br> idea what to do with the panel config (tadkbar is the only option in the <br>conigure panel dialogue).<br><br> Here is what's left of my kmenu...<br> Accessories<br> Edutainment<br> Games<br> Graphics<br> Internet<br> Office<br> Programming<br> Sound and
Video<br> System Tools<br> And the newly added nearly empty<br> System Settings (only one app so far which I believe should be under <br>"other").<br> Control Center<br><br> Thanks for any help<br> MN<br><br><br>___________________________________________________<br>This message is from the kde-linux mailing list.<br>Account management: https://mail.kde.org/mailman/listinfo/kde-linux.<br>Archives: http://lists.kde.org/.<br>More info: http://www.kde.org/faq.html.<br></msn1inc></blockquote><br><p>
