Yes, I am.  The menu that you can either add to the panel (Xfce menu?
I'm sorry, I'm at my box at work, so I'm still running 4.0 here) and
that menu you get when you right-click on the desktop.

OK, I'll do that when I get home.  I'm sure it is an SVG issue, but I'm
not sure how to solve it.

Again, I apologize to the list for bringing this up here.  I'll try to
ask my questions in IRC or at Bugzilla.

Apologies,
