Fw: Re: xfdesktop menu question

[Linus Fagerberg]

I'm the one starting the thread about "xfdesktop menu question" from
yesterday but I'm using my work adress today and I'm not sure if this letter
will end up where I suppose to.

I'm not using gdm or any other login manager. I use startx and a modified
.xinitrc file
xfce-mcs-manager
xfwm4 --daemon
xfdesktop &
exec xfce4-panel

Because of this I don't get any .xsession-error file (or am I
missunderstanding something?).

The error message previously posted did I get when starting xfce4 with the
following .xinitrc
xfce-mcs-manager
xfwm4 --daemon
exec xfce4-panel
and thereafter starting xfdesktop from a gnome-terminal (bash).

I'm not sure if I understand if "the menu is genarated on the fly".
I copied menu.xml from /usr/local/etc/xfce4/ to ~/.xfce4/ (and also to
~/.xfce4/settings/)

I'm not using the original gtk package shipped with the RH7.3 CD but an
updated version from ximian (I use red-carpet to keep my system up to date).
I don't want to upgrade to gtk2.2 because that basicly means I have to
upgrade to RH9 and I don't have the spare time just now.

Thanks for your help.
