My standard procedure is: 1. emerge newApp 2. look in the folder(s) I'd expect it to be in 3. look in Lost & Found 4. look in all folders 5. run Menu Updating Tool 6. manually create the menu entry BTW, anyone know how KDE stores the menu items? It might be faster to search there with find/grep... Have fun, Roy -- gentoo-user@gentoo.org mailing list
