KDE-Forum.org

Hi All - I am a total newbie on this forum, and want to thatnk all the participants for thier posts. I am coming right in with a plea for help.

I am an old Unix guy who naturally migrated to Linux - but didn't know anything re desktops etc. After running KDE for a year or so, I realized i was constantly having to skim over a *lot* of apps in the KDE start menu everytime i wanted to run something, so i thought to myself... I bet these clever folks have made this really easy. I started deleting things from the menu, and while i was at it re-arranging those i didn't delete to more acommodate <sp?> my workflow.

Well - I bet you gurus are ROTFL right now! Anyway - I have been living with the results for about a year now - poking at it everyonce in a while try to get back to where i was. The most suprising thing was how the Control Center sort of became a truncated version of its former self.

So... Any help? I have already upgraded from RH 8.1 to RH 9.0 thinking the upgrade might restore the original menu - no luck.

PS - I have a wonderful and long evolving setup for everything else - so if i can keep that stuff (desktops etc )...so much the better.
